The patch titled skge: don't mark carrier down at start has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was skge-dont-mark-carrier-down-at-start.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: skge: don't mark carrier down at start From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> The API for network devices has changed so that setting carrier off at probe is no longer required.
