Strange, it didn't warn here.

I just committed the following, let me know if it fixes
this.

Thanks!

tulip: Add missing parens.

As reported by Stephen Rothwell.

You've an extra () there.

A close paren could have been moved from after

I think it's more readable as:
(new_skb = dev_alloc_skb(rxlen + 2))) {
