Any idea what exactly causes the problem? I've no idea whether the workaround is simply not supposed to be used on fibre devices (I'm suprised the driver works on fibre full stop 8)). Its certainly possible to do a cleaner change though even if nobody can work out why. Use lspci -v to find the subvendor/subdevice ID for the particular board assembly and then skip the fixup for that device alone. That should let you produce a diff that is safely mergable - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
