Subject: [patch 12/31] 8139too: RTNL and flush_scheduled_work deadlock
Date: Wed, 11 Apr 2007 15:51:56 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070411225156.GM24814@kroah.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20070411225100.GA24814@kroah.com>

[-- Attachment #1: 8139too-rtnl-and-flush_scheduled_work-deadlock.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2811 bytes --]

-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: Francois Romieu <romieu@fr.zoreil.com>

Your usual dont-flush_scheduled_work-with-RTNL-held stuff.

It is a bit different here since the thread runs permanently
or is only occasionally kicked for recovery depending on the
hardware revision.
