Subject: [PATCH 01/12] sky2: restore workarounds for lost interrupts
Date: Mon, 09 Jul 2007 15:33:33 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070709223453.040349359@linux-foundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20070709223332.966231494@linux-foundation.org

[-- Attachment #1: sky2-tx-kick.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1339 bytes --]

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.
