Subject: [PATCH] tweak spin logic for hpilo
Date: Mon, 9 Mar 2009 16:56:52 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090309225651.GA13702@ldl.fc.hp.com> (raw)

Change hpilo open and close logic to spin for 10usec between checking device, 
rather than every usec.  Applies to 2.6.29.

Please CC me on any replies.
