[PATCH] xirc2ps_cs: Cannot reset card in atomic context
I am using a Xircom CEM33 pcmcia NIC which has occasional hardware problems. If the netdev watchdog detects a transmit timeout, do_reset is called which msleeps - this is illegal in atomic context. This patch schedules the timeout handling as a workqueue item. Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
