Subject: [PATCH 5/13] forcedeth: remove overhead
Date: Thu, 05 Mar 2009 13:02:06 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <49B0139E.6080109@nvidia.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 313 bytes --]

This patch removes unnecessary overhead code. Firstly, there is no nead 
to mask off unwanted interrupts as we will be checking against the 
irqmask field anyways. Secondly, there has been no value in last few 
years from detecting error or unknown interrupts.
