[PATCH 2.6.31] rndis_host: extra interrupt for problematic devices

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Mark Ellis <mark@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Certain devices, particularly those with Samsung processors, show
difficulties connecting via RNDIS, specifically resulting in -110
errors in driver initialisation.

This patch, resulting from comparisons with an obsolete user mode
driver, overcomes this in all tested cases.
