From: Suresh Reddy Date: Fri, 10 Jul 2015 09:32:49 +0000 (-0400) Subject: be2net: make the RX_FILTER command asynchronous X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8af65c2f4deeb02a128c5cf29fa351b70bf16424;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git be2net: make the RX_FILTER command asynchronous This fix makes the RX_FILTER cmd asynchronous, i.e., the caller issues this cmd and doesn't wait for a completion from the FW. If the FW/adapter is in an error state, this change helps in not holding up the rtnl_lock and keeping bottom halves disabled while the driver timesout waiting for a response from the FW.
