sungem: Soft lockup in sungem on Netra AC200 when switching interface up
From: Ilkka Virta <itvirta@iki.fi> In the lockup situation the driver seems to go off in an eternal storm of interrupts right after calling request_irq(). It doesn't actually do anything interesting in the interrupt handler. Since connecting the link afterwards works, something later in initialization must fix this. Looking at gem_do_start() and gem_open(), it seems that the only thing done while opening the device after the request_irq(), is a call to napi_enable(). I don't know what the ordering requirements are for the initialization, but I boldly tried to move the napi_enable() call inside gem_do_start() before the link state is checked and interrupts subsequently enabled, and it seems to work for me. Doesn't even break anything too obvious... Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
