Subject: [PATCH 4/10] spidernet: zero out a pointer.
Date: Wed, 16 May 2007 17:09:28 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070516220928.GD4997@austin.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20070516215605.GA4325@austin.ibm.com>


Invalidate a pointer as its pci_unmap'ed; this is a bit of 
paranoia to make sure hardware doesn't continue trying to 
DMA to it.
