    - Return 8390.c to the old way of handling short packets (which is also
    faster)
    
    - Remove the skb_padto from orinoco. This got left in when the padding bad
    write patch was added and is actually not needed. This is fixing a merge
    error way back when.
    
    - Wavelan can also use the stack based buffer trick if you want
