Subject: Fwd: KS8851 SPI Driver Integration

Hi Ben,

I am currently working with ks8851snl driver and facing some issues,
the system integrated with is OMAP4, a ARM Cortex A9 Dual Core. I am
using the following commit as latest

commit 94da210af4978b94cb70318bd1b282a73c50b175
Author: Simon Kagstrom <simon.kagstrom@...insight.net>
   net: fix ks8851 build errors

   Fix build errors due to missing Kconfig select of CRC32:

   ks8851.c:(.text+0x7d2ee): undefined reference to `crc32_le'
   ks8851.c:(.text+0x7d2f5): undefined reference to `bitrev32'

I can summarize the problems as follows:

* Driver won't be able to get ip address via dhcp if SMP/Preemption/L2
Cache are enabled, I have not enabled/disabled one by one to narrow
down the problem...


* Having one single core running, dhcp works, I can ping with small
size packets but cannot mount any nfs directory, 2 different scenarios
listed below, nfs server is up


* Timeout when trying to mount a nfs directory from a system already
booted, if I try to cancel the request then the following messages
will be seen, console access cannot be recovered immediately

 rpcbind: server localhost not responding, timed out
 CTRL-C
 svc: failed to register lockdv1 RPC service (errno 5).
 lockd_up: makesock failed, error=-5


* Kernel NULL pointer when trying to mount a nfs directory using
bootargs or after some time of pinging to any other ip

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000054
