This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled net/mlx4_en: Fixed crash when port type is changed to the linux-3.11.y-queue branch of the 3.11.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.11.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.11.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From 8f1ec1f8ce2e2b53bede01035f1ec44e61efbbae Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Amir Vadai <amirv@mellanox.com> Date: Thu, 7 Nov 2013 11:08:30 +0200 Subject: net/mlx4_en: Fixed crash when port type is changed commit 1ec4864b10171b0691ee196d7006ae56d2c153f2 upstream. timecounter_init() was was called only after first potential timecounter_read().
