[patch 04/58] b43: Refresh RX poison on buffer recycling

From: Greg KH
Date: Wed May 06 2009 - 17:55:55 EST


2.6.29-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Michael Buesch <mb@xxxxxxxxx>

upstream commit: cf68636a9773aa97915497fe54fa4a51e3f08f3a

The RX buffer poison needs to be refreshed, if we recycle an RX buffer,
because it might be (partially) overwritten by some DMA operations.
