From 3410572d519b6c68505f746f25033de97809eaa1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Francois Romieu Date: Wed, 30 Nov 2005 22:32:13 +0100 Subject: b44: early return in dev->do_ioctl when the device is not up The device has not gone through a whole reset/init sequence until the device is up. Accessing the mii interface before this point is not safe.
