From a89e828397abbefdc5c3b707521f6b73471b43c8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ajit Khaparde Date: Tue, 1 Feb 2011 15:41:13 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] be2net: fix a crash seen during insmod/rmmod test While running insmod/rmood in a loop, an unnecessary netif_stop_queue causes the system to crash. Remove the netif_stop_queue call and netif_start_queue in the link status update path. Signed-off-by: Ajit Khaparde Signed-off-by: David S.
