Subject: [patch 03/20] sky2: restore workarounds for lost interrupts
Date: Mon, 20 Aug 2007 23:53:53 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070821065353.GD5275@kroah.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20070821065210.GA5275@kroah.com>

[-- Attachment #1: sky2-lost-irq.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1567 bytes --]

-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@linux-foundation.org>

Backport of commit c59697e06058fc2361da8cefcfa3de85ac107582

This patch restores a couple of workarounds from 2.6.16:
 * restart transmit moderation timer in case it expires during IRQ routine
 * default to having 10 HZ watchdog timer.
At this point it more important not to hang than to worry about the
power cost.
