When you're in a timer BH is already disabled. So this patch
is redundant.

Hi Andy !
I've been looking at porting various drivers (EMAC, sungem,
spider_net, ...) to the generic PHY stuff. However, I have one
significant problem here.
One solution would be to change it to use a mutex instead of a

In previous implementations the normal bcm43xx PCI driver
was run on these devices, by emulating a PCI bus on top of
the real SSB Bus.

I was looking at SMP issues in d80211 stack, below in my finding.
I did change the d80211 stack to add SMP safety code. I will email
these patches later after I update them with what ever feedback I will

The D80211 stack has many entry points; this could leads to race

Using request_firmware assumes that the driver knows the FW file name

and the driver initiates the load. That's not our model where we work
with different FWs, don't know what the names are,
you can have the user make a symlink to the one he wants. No Big Deal.
