Subject: [PATCH] libertas: use private SDIO workqueue to avoid scheduling latency
Date: Fri, 20 Feb 2009 12:27:38 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1235150858.2859.4.camel@localhost> (raw)
The libertas SDIO interface scheduled the packet worker, resulting in
unwanted latency for every data packet or command sent to the firmware.
Fix a bug on the SDIO probe error path too.
