Re: [ANNOUNCE] 2.6.33.1-rt11 - BUG?

[Xianghua Xiao]

I'm testing 2.6.33.1 on ppc 834x with rt11 patch. After system is up I
keep seeing this same message from dmesg:

This does not hang/lock the system yet...google reported similar 'bug'
on older kernels. Is this a bug from 2.6.33.1-rt11 patch or I have to
change phy.c somehow to avoid it? This traces back to a mutex lock in
phy.c.
