The attached patch, against 2.4.1-pre10, should fix things.  tms380tr,
the base module that abyss driver uses, needed to be updated to use
special IRQ versions of the dev_kfree_skb function.

Linus (and others), the patch also adds a missing dev->last_rx
assignment (which records the time of last packet reception).
