[PATCH 08/13] rt2x00: Remove failsave from rt2x00usb_watchdog_tx_dma

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

 



From: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@xxxxxxxxx>

When the TX status handler failed to clear the queue
in rt2x00usb_watchdog_tx_dma() we shouldn't use a failsave
to use the rt2x00usb txdone handler.

If a driver has overriden the txdone handler it must make
sure the txdone handler is capable of cleaning up the queue itself.
