Hi Nicholas,
Even assuming this is the reasonable thing to do [which I'm not fully convinced],
I don't think this solution is complete - you'd also need to break the iteration in
bnx2x_dcbnl_update_applist() [at the moment said function always returns 'rc'
from the last dcb_app weve tried setting].
Also, why do you send multiple patches for fixing the same issue in different
functions in the same file?
Thanks,
Yuval
