Subject: [PATCH][v3.18.y][v3.19.y]  tg3: Hold tp->lock before calling tg3_halt()
 from tg3_init_one()

Hello,

Please consider including mainline commit
d0af71a3573f1217b140c60b66f1a9b335fb058b in the next v3.18.y and v3.19.y
stable releases.  It was included in the mainline tree as of v4.0-rc1. 
It has been tested and confirmed to resolve:
http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1428111 .

This commit fixes a regression introduced going from 3.16 to 3.19, so it
may not be needed in earlier than 3.18 stable releases.

    tg3: Hold tp->lock before calling tg3_halt() from tg3_init_one()

Sincerely,
