From 1b62815193f6c20c60958e5347751155833e3d35 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Chan Date: Sun, 29 May 2005 14:59:49 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [TG3]: Fix bug in tg3_load_firmware_cpu Add tg3_nvram_lock() and tg3_nvram_unlock() calls around tg3_halt_cpu(). It is possible that the bootcode may be loading code from nvram during this call and stopping the cpu without getting the lock may cause uncompleted nvram data to be left in the nvram data register. Subsequent calls to read/write nvram data will fail. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan Signed-off-by: David S.
