kernel: rename bgmac patches to squeeze them

2017-02-05T21:38:26+00:00

This is a pure rename without any changes. It makes maintaining bgmac
simpler and will hopefully make adding new kernel a bit easier.

kernel: ar8327/ar8337: disable ARL access code to avoid lockups (FS#384)

2017-02-01T14:40:19+00:00

Running ar8327_get_arl_entry() early after boot leads to MDIO related system
lockups on several devices using this driver.

Since dumping the ARL table contens is an optional, uncritical feature, simply
disable the code for now.

ledtrig-netdev: don't cancel work on events for different interfaces

2017-01-29T16:34:29+00:00

This fixes logic bug(in function netdev_trig_notify) introduced in
0b2991a8ed32b5d9ba0a7c3441a72e1c1a1c4fde commit.
Events triggered by different interfaces were stopping work queue so it
wasn't working for tx/rx mode.
