Subject: Re: [PATCH] sky2: avoid pci write posting after disabling irqs

From: Lino Sanfilippo <LinoSanfilippo@....de>

> In sky2_change_mtu setting B0_IMSK to 0 may be delayed due to PCI write posting

> Since we are not prepared to handle any further irqs after synchronize_irq
> (our resources are freed after that) force the write by a consecutive read from

> Similar situation in sky2_all_down: Here we disabled irqs by a write to B0_IMSK
