The patch titled sundance: remove TxStartThresh and RxEarlyThresh has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was sundance-remove-txstartthresh-and-rxearlythresh.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: sundance: remove TxStartThresh and RxEarlyThresh From: Jesse Huang <jesse@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> For patent issue need to remove TxStartThresh and RxEarlyThresh. This patent is cut-through patent. If use this function, Tx will start to transmit after few data be move in to Tx FIFO. We are not allow to use those function in DFE530/DFE550/DFE580/DL10050/IP100/IP100A. It will decrease a little performance.
