It does not apply, again.

And again, here is the bundle I tried to apply using "git am --signoff":

When you have resolved this problem run "git am --resolved".

To restore the original branch and stop patching run "git am --abort".
--------------------

Did you try the bundle I posted yesterday which failed?  This
one is identical, you didn't change anything.

This is getting rediculious.

Try again, and when you do take the patches from patchwork at:

	http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/netdev/list/

and you try to apply them to net-next-2.6 using git (_not_ 'patch',
'patch' is way too lenient about fuzz and line offsets) so that you
can see what's happening.

I'm completely ignoring your patch postings until you sort this out.

You cannot have line offsets or fuzz when you send patches that are to
be applied by GIT, and that is the problem with patch #4:

davem@sunset:~/src/GIT/net-next-2.6$ patch -p1 <diff
patching file drivers/net/fsl_pq_mdio.c
Hunk #6 succeeded at 436 with fuzz 1.
patching file drivers/net/fsl_pq_mdio.h

GIT does not allow line fuzz, you must make absolutely pristine
patches, and therefore if you are testing your submission with just
'patch' that absolutely will not work.

Thanks.

You can't do this Ben.

Changing this patch makes the follow-on patches not apply cleanly.

So if you respin stuff like this, you have to respin the follow-on
patches too.

I'll fix this up, but I am so irritated that I've wasted so much time
tonight already on patch submissions that were not handled with any
care at all.  And it's all at my expense.

I'll pull net-2.6 into net-next-2.6 before applying this patch and the

I agree the link state makes no sense when the interface isn't up.
The buglet is that other drivers seem to report "Link detected: no"
after probe while sky2 doesn't.

I don't have a strong feeling on this patch since the customer fixed
their script to do the right thing.

I agree that we should report something consistent before interface
up and 'no' is probably the best.

I remember fixing something similar in other drivers a few months
ago.

Sorry, this is too much too late.  You don't even have the hardware
to test the changes you are making to the driver which makes this
even more questionable for net-2.6

I'll toss this into net-next-2.6 and let's let it cook there for
a while at least.

If you want to pick out a small bug fix or two from this series
for net-2.6, please feel free to resubmit them specifically for
net-2.6 inclusion.

I don't think your technical arguments are pointless either. However,
asking Dave to revert something over John and then arguing about it is
pointless and will likely just piss people off and make them ignore

platform_get_irq() returns a signed int so the intention
is more likely that catching negative value returns
was intended.

Probably the correct fix is to mark txirq and rxirq as
plain 'int'.
