-gerrit commit 07e941bfd3b775f6f3f03768d886a6b735d73d2d Author: Stefan Reinauer <[email protected]> Date: Wed Jun 6 13:24:32 2012 -0700 Fix MRC cache update delays When no valid MRC cache area is found, the mrc_cache data structure was used without prior initialization. This sometimes caused a long delay when booting because compute_ip_checksum would checksum up to 4GB of memory.
