[Bug 590783] Re: Lucid sfc stable updates from 2.6.33.4

[Stefan Bader]

** Description changed:

- The sfc driver was backported from 2.6.33, and as such requires that
- stable updates from 2.6.33.y be applied. There are currently 3 patches
- available from 2.6.33.4 stable:
+ SRU justification:
+ 
+ Impact:  The sfc driver was backported from 2.6.33, and as such requires
+ that stable updates from 2.6.33.y be applied. We pick upstream stable
+ patches from 2.6.32.y for the main kernel as part of the kernel SRU
+ policy. But as this specific driver is a backport, updates need to come
+ from a different tree.
+ 
+ Fix: There are currently 3 patches available from 2.6.33.4 stable:
  
  680e3fe449b3a78a95871bbc02398b2bb1a40174 sfc: Change falcon_probe_board() to fail for unsupported boards
  068e5818f0d028cc0469ae7ae33368fd71024886 sfc: Always close net device at the end of a disabling reset
  fa8472cab002dbbb70bf2b1c975b56f75e5d88c6 sfc: Wait at most 10ms for the MC to finish reading out MAC statistics
+ 
+ 
+ Testcase: TBD
