[PATCH] net: davicom: dm9000: Avoid spinlock recursion during dm9000_timeout routine

Show all headers | View raw

On the DM9000B, dm9000_phy_write() is called after the main spinlock
is held, during the dm9000_timeout() routine. Spinlock recursion
occurs because the main spinlock is requested again in
dm9000_phy_write(). So spinlock should be avoided in dm9000_phy_write()
during the dm9000_timeout() routine.
