The typhoon driver was incorrectly using smp_wmb() to order memory accesses against IO to the NIC in a few instances. Use wmb() instead, which is required to actually order between memory types. Signed-off-by: David Dillow <dave@thedillows.org> --- This is against Linus's tree, which doesn't appear to have net-next in it yet. It should apply with offsets, though. I can redo against net-next if needed, but likely won't have quick access to that tree until the weekend. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
