Subject: [PATCH] firewire: time out in fw_core_remove_card
Date: Sun, 14 Sep 2008 10:35:05 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <tkrat.b3c43c8b09b72285@s5r6.in-berlin.de> (raw)

This allows "modprobe -r firewire-ohci" (or card unbinding in general)
to proceed after 40 seconds even if there is a reference counting bug or
other shutdown bug in upper layers.
