Yes, this is to fixup purpose. My customer buy "net101 USB20" netcards, It was manifactured by some company and in the market. We find it can not work due to eeprom wrong. This fixup make it correct. I focus on the essential eeprom words only. Yes, need to reset the device once the eeprom is updated. (I don't know how to let the device reset by software ? Only un-plug and then plug the device.)

I'm not sure we want to do this automatically without an explicit action from the user. How common are these adapters without valid eeprom? What happens if the eeprom content isn't fixed? Do we need to reset the device once the eeprom is updated? -- Bye, Peter Korsgaard -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
