The wrong one is like the original one, but it comes with an one byte shift. I found this bug on an older alpha ev5 cpu. More details are available in Gentoo bugreport #240718. It seems the hardware is sometimes a little bit too slow for an immediate access. This patch solves the problem by introducing a small udelay. Signed-off-by: Martin Langer Signed-off-by: David S.
