It seems to me it breaks more than it fixes. Because it suffered from an acute case of being wrong. The blanket patch proposed by Sergio is also wrong. Both break valid correct and working systems while fixing some others. The draft patch I posted fixes up precisely the right devices on precisely the right bridges and nothing else which should mean we now have a patch that gets all cases right. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
