From d4b7057052236e81ab0788cc8df306dc02b0e7be Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lennert Buytenhek Date: Thu, 16 Jul 2009 12:44:45 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] mwl8k: don't touch 'command done' interrupt during firmware load Since firmware load commands don't generate 'command done' interrupts like normal commands do, polling for command done interrupts just unnecessarily slows down the firmware load process. Removing this bit of code speeds up loading a typical firmware image from 840 msec to 180 msec. Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek Signed-off-by: John W.
