so how about calling netif_poll_disable() before we register the net_device?
Yes that should work. Let's move the other two netif_ calls while we're
at it.
well no, if we make the watchdog (this is something I've already
implemented locally and -mm has it for instance) run as delayed work we can
just schedule a watchdog run instead of firing an interrupt.
OK. The only thing I'm worried about is if we're uncovering some
underlying problem with the platform with respect to memory barriers
then we should get to the bottom of it first before making this problem
disappear.
agreed. I will try to send a patch to do this later today.
