Subject: [PATCH 19/22] zd1211rw: reset device when CR_BCN_FIFO_SEMAPHORE freezes in beacon setup
Date: Mon, 31 Jan 2011 20:50:02 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110131185002.10044.3635.stgit@fate.lan> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110131184657.10044.98610.stgit@fate.lan>

When driver fails to acquire device semaphore lock, device usually
freezes soon afterwards. So failing to acquire lock indicates us that
not everything is going right in device/fw. So reset device when
this happens.
