From 5c5131297db57b501f371ab53c40343eac6f2af7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gary Zambrano Date: Wed, 29 Mar 2006 17:12:05 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] b44: fix force mac address before ifconfig up Initializing the b44 MAC & PCI functional blocks in the controller must occur inside init_one(). This will allow access to the MAC registers. The controller was being powered up in b44_open() which would not allow access to the registers before ifconfig was up. Philip Kohlbecher found this bug.
