[Prism54-users] Oops in islpci_eth_transmit() while ping'ing...

[Warrick Lacey]

Using prism54 version 1.2 on kernel version
2.6.10-rcl3 running in a MIPS TX4925.

After initting, and getting the firmware loaded to the
card, I start a ping from the target to wireless
router everything is groovy. Then, shortly later -
just for kicks and giggles, I power down the router. I
expected to see the ping maybe stop or continue but
complain about receiving no response but instead the
kernel panics (Oops LINUX speak).

>From the stack, it appears it blew up in function
islpci_eth_transmit() somewhere after islpci_trigger()
and withing the many macros invoked by
spin_unlock_irqrestore().

It fails easily w/out - well - fail.

Has anyone else seen this?
Any clue as to what I may be doing wrong or have
failed to do?
