From e254e9bff5283aad1af6d74d2a312ee011b84d61 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "John W. Linville" Date: Wed, 8 Jun 2005 15:11:57 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] b44: check link state during open Check the link state during b44_open. This closes a 1 HZ window that existed after b44_open ran but before the b44_timer handler ran, during which ethtool would report "Link detected: yes" no matter what the link state actually was.
