Subject: myri10ge: limit the number of recoveries
X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f181137f9d70dc851dcb418cdad4df7888a0bfd3;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git

myri10ge: limit the number of recoveries

Limit the number of recoveries from a NIC hw watchdog reset to 1 by default.
It enables detection of defective NICs immediately since these memory parity
errors are expected to happen very rarely (less than once per century*NIC).
