Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Sender: linux-wireless-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: The first of these two patches is by Stefano Brivio and removes extra MMIO references in the interrupt routine. I am submitting it on Stefano's behalf because I was able to test it, and his patch touches the routine that patch 2 fixes. The second patch fixes a locking problem introduced by commit abb1d2bca0fc429c136747a64e675dd4d8906f36 "mac80211: unify config_interface and bss_info_changed". After that patch was applied, b43legacy would lock the system upon booting.
