The patch titled
ibmtr_cs: fix hang on eject
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
ibmtr_cs-fix-hang-on-eject.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: ibmtr_cs: fix hang on eject
From: Paul Walmsley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Ejecting a PCMCIA IBM Token Ring card that has not had its dev->open()
called will reliably trigger an uninitialized spinlock oops when spinlock
debugging is enabled. The system then hangs, occasionally softlockup
oopsing. Apparently ibmtr.c:tok_interrupt() doesn't expect to be called
before tok_open(), but tok_interrupt() gets called anyway when the card is
ejected. So, set an already-existing flag which causes tok_interrupt() to
bail out early upon card ejection. Tested by inserting and removing the
PCMCIA card several times.
