| |
2.6.32-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
---------------- From: Jussi Kivilinna <jussi.kivilinna@mbnet.fi>
commit 77593ae28c4c134eaf28ef34ecac3cd4464ecd6e upstream.
Stall workaround doesn't work with bcm4320a devices like with bcm4320b. This workaround actually causes more stalls/device freeze on bcm4320a. Therefore disable stall workaround by default.
