Subject: [PATCH] p54: fix queue stall due to underrun
Date: Mon, 6 Jul 2009 15:18:13 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200907061518.13368.chunkeey@web.de> (raw)
Larry Finger discovered a weird behavior under load.
In essence, the queue's length count under runs,
which in turn renders the associated ac queue unusable.
