Karmic-virtio-napi

PPA description

Karmic kernel plus patch virtio-net.c to add schedule check to napi_enable call. Based on a patch from Bruce Rogers of Novell which is now in SLES and Ubutnu Lucid and all later versions and the upstream kernel but the SRU team won't put into Karmic because their policy is to only provide kernel updates for the first 3-4 months of an interim release like Karmic. Yet they pushed out a bug fix in May after support was supposed to be over in April and that fix didn't have this patch either so I've updated this PPA again in May.
