I can definitely follow Daves remarks regarding the ability to review 
local bugfixes. In this case two commits should be used.

Btw. the cleanup an removal of the err variable usage in the pointed 
cases is a good suggestion. So even when the two latest changes in Sam's 
patch are not that obvious to be able to be reviewed locally i would 
like to ack this patch.

It should apply fine on Linus' tree and the current net-2.6.

Thanks to all of you & have a nice weekend.
