If qeth_qdio_output_handler() detects that a transmit requires async completion, it replaces the pending buffer's metadata object (qeth_qdio_out_buffer) so that this queue buffer can be re-used while the data is pending completion. Later when the CQ indicates async completion of such a metadata object, qeth_qdio_cq_handler() tries to free any data associated with this object (since HW has now completed the transfer). By calling qeth_clear_output_buffer(), it erronously operates on the queue buffer that _previously_ belonged to this transfer ... but which has been potentially re-used several times by now. This results in double-free's of the buffer's data, and failing transmits as the buffer descriptor is scrubbed in mid-air. The correct way of handling this situation is to 1. scrub the queue buffer when it is prepared for re-use, and 2. later obtain the data addresses from the async-completion notifier (ie. the AOB), instead of the queue buffer. All this only affects qeth devices used for af_iucv HiperTransport.
