From cafa8804a4c5fdea18c7435c09c549841855c98c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christian Marangi Date: Mon, 18 Sep 2023 16:36:34 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ipq806x: add patch fixing regression from stmmac TX timer Add patch fixing regression from stmmac TX timer. Refer to the single patch for extensive details on the problem. This should restore original performance before 4.19 kernel.
