From 0d672e9f8ac320c6d1ea9103db6df7f99ea20361 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ivan Vecera <ivecera@redhat.com> Date: Tue, 15 Feb 2011 02:08:39 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] drivers/net: Call netif_carrier_off at the end of the probe Without calling of netif_carrier_off at the end of the probe the operstate is unknown when the device is initially opened. By default the carrier is on so when the device is opened and netif_carrier_on is called the link watch event is not fired and operstate remains zero (unknown). This patch fixes this behavior in forcedeth and r8169. Signed-off-by: Ivan Vecera <ivecera@redhat.com> Acked-by: Francois Romieu <romieu@fr.zoreil.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
