I am working on enabling UFO between KVM guests using virtio-net and i have 
some patches that i got working with 2.6.30-rc8. When i wanted to try them
with net-next-2.6, i noticed that virtio-net is not working with that tree.

After some debugging, it turned out to be several bugs in the recent patches
to fix aio with tun driver, specifically the following 2 commits.

Fix the call to memcpy_from_iovecend() in skb_copy_datagram_from_iovec
to pass the right iovec offset.

Yes, looks like the bugs were around GSO handling, I was probably
testing without GSO at the time. I'll go try with GSO now. Thanks for
fixing these!
