G'day all,
I have tested Emil's patch with each 4.5-rc release.
Seems to work fine with rc2, rc3, rc4.
I tried it with rc5 and get the following output from dmesg see attachment.
So it looks like there is a reset that it recovers from and then proceeds OK.
I see the patch has been queued by David Miller so it might make it into rc6.
That will be great. It still does not look quite as clean as it should
be however, given the noise in the dmesg output from rc5
Regards,
Ross Green
