From cded936962a3be2f8fe1f0b4a4e3c45d8a8047ce Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vladimir Kondratiev Date: Tue, 28 Oct 2014 16:50:06 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] wil6210: do not attempt FW recovery if interface is down When interface is down, recovery flow should not be attempted. Next ndo_open() will trigger target reset, that is FW recovery. Doing recovery while interface is down cause internal "up", leaving internal driver state in conflict with network stack. Then, when network stack will call ndo_open(), kernel oops will be triggered. Signed-off-by: Vladimir Kondratiev Signed-off-by: John W.
