Subject: [net] igbvf: fix divide by zero
Date: Sat, 30 Jun 2012 03:23:19 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1341051799-8824-1-git-send-email-jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> (raw)

From: Mitch A Williams <mitch.a.williams@intel.com>

Using ethtool -C ethX rx-usecs 0 crashes with a divide by zero.
Refactor this function to fix this issue and make it more clear
what the intent of each conditional is. Add comment regarding
using a setting of zero.
