The patch titled
tulip: de_stop_rxtx() polling wrong
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
tulip-de_stop_rxtx-polling-wrong.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: tulip: de_stop_rxtx() polling wrong
From: Grant Grundler <grundler@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
This untested patch _should_ fix:
"(net de2104x) Kernel panic with de2104x tulip driver on boot"
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3156
But the bug submitter isn't responding. Same fix has been applied to tulip.c
(several years ago) and uli526x.c (Feb 2008) drivers.
[ The panic reported in the bug report was removed in a recently
(march 2008) accepted patch from Ondrej Zary. ]
