From 283a21d3e16e9709012cc8b0839ec474d8888a5d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephen Hemminger Date: Thu, 8 Jan 2009 11:17:13 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] pcnet32: round off carrier watch timer The link check watchdog timer on this driver fires every two seconds, but since not aligned it causes extra wakeups. It is more important on this driver than most because it is the hardware that is emulated by default when using network interfaces on VMware. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S.
