From e71180f3689e00c5a1095925352a72dacdd62e34 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Patrick McHardy Date: Sat, 29 Oct 2005 13:31:39 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] prism54: Free skb after disabling interrupts The dev_kfree_skb in islpci_eth_transmit happens while irqs are still disabled, so either dev_kfree_skb_irq needs to be used or the skb needs to be freed after irqs have been enabled again. This patch should fix it.
