eth0 is using bnx2.
$ ethtool -i eth0
driver: bnx2
version: 2.2.6
firmware-version: bc 5.2.3 NCSI 2.0.12
bus-info: 0000:03:00.0
supports-statistics: yes
supports-test: yes
supports-eeprom-access: yes
supports-register-dump: yes
supports-priv-flags: no
I can add some WARN_ON_ONCE calls elsewhere in the kernel. Do you have
suggestions where or can provide me an example patch?
