From 84b66683dba002f4cce2aaf78bf45debfaf22795 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ursula Braun Date: Mon, 11 Jan 2010 02:50:51 +0000 Subject: qeth: avoid recovery during device online setting If a qeth device is set online, several initialisation steps are performed. If a failure in one of these steps occurs, the qeth device is reset into DOWN state. If due to the failure a qeth recovery is scheduled and started in another thread, this might cause all kinds of conflicts, even a kernel panic. The patch forbids scheduling of a qeth recovery while online processing is performed till the card is in state SOFTSETUP.
