[PATCH] bcm43xx: workaround init_board vs. IRQ race
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Place the Init-vs-IRQ workaround before any card register
access, because we might not have the wireless core mapped
at all times in init. So this will result in a Machine Check
caused by a bus error.
