Hi,
The following patch set contains a number of fixes and improvements of
the pasemi_mac driver:
1/10: A couple of minor bugfixes.
2/10: Move the IRQ mapping from the PCI layer under our platform, to
the driver.
3/10: Abstract and fix up interrupt restart routines
4/10: Timer and interrupt
Bugfixes:
* Move the wake_queue logic from tx_intr to clean_tx
* Always do wake_queue even if queue wasn't full before clean since
it's safe to do
* Fix polarity in checks in pasemi_mac_close
