From 392209fa833287a1c5532ffbb098bba584a69dbc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Felix Manlunas Date: Wed, 25 Oct 2017 18:04:56 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] liquidio: deprecate 1-bit flag indicating watchdog kernel thread is running Deprecate the 1-bit flag (bit 2 in the SLI_SCRATCH_1 Octeon register) that indicates that the liquidio watchdog kernel thread is running for this NIC. Reason is: it is incompatible with the firmware's use for SLI_SCRATCH_1. In lieu of checking that now-deprecated flag, check the value of oct_dev->adapter_refcount to determine whether or not to create the watchdog kernel thread.
