Subject[PATCH] Possible VIA-Rhine free irq issue
Hi,

It seems to me that in the VIA Rhine device driver the requested irq might
not be freed in case the alloc_ring() function fails. alloc_ring()
can fail with a ENOMEM return value because of possible
pci_alloc_consistent() failures.

This patch applies to 2.6.11-rc5-bk2.
