[PATCH] e100 locking up netconsole.
From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> If the transmit buffer of the e100 overflowed, then the system would hang. This was caused because the e100 driver would stop the queue, and netpoll_send_pkt in netpoll.c would then loop forever. This is because the e100 net_poll would never start the queue again after the transmits have completed. For those that use the e100 and netconsole, all you need to do is a sysreq 't' to lock up the system.
