I seem to be totally unable to reproduce the equivalent issue on the
netfront xmit side, even though it seems like the loop in
xennet_make_frags ought to be obviously susceptible to it.

Konrad, Sander, are either of you able to repro, e.g. with:

diff --git a/drivers/net/xen-netfront.c b/drivers/net/xen-netfront.c

My repro for netback was just to netcat a wodge of data from dom0->domU
but going the other way doesn't seem to trigger.
