Subject: [PATCH] synclink_gt fix size of register value storage
Date: Tue, 17 Jan 2006 10:35:18 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1137515718.3403.5.camel@amdx2.microgate.com> (raw)

Fix incorrect variable size used to hold
register value. This bug might wipe out a portion of the
TCR value when setting the interface options.
