I would agree with Rick - if prefetch() is broken on Xscale it should be disabled in the architecture, not in individual drivers. Otherwise all other code that use it might be broken too. Maybe it's only broken on MMIO and not normal memory - in that case introducing a mmio_prefetch() (and defining it as an nop on Xscale) would be also an option. -Andi - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
