From: Russell King <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The smc91x driver relies upon register bank 2 being selected whenever the interrupt handler is called. This isn't always so, especially if we have a link change event during PHY configuration.
This results in register bank 0 being selected when the interrupt handler is called, causing the wrong registers to be read for the IRQ mask and status. In turn, this causes us to spin with a permanently asserted IRQ. The patch ensures that smc_phy_configure always exits with register bank 2 selected.
