From: Jacob Keller Date: Thu, 8 Sep 2011 03:50:54 +0000 (+0000) Subject: ixgbe: fix driver version initialization in firmware X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2466dd9ca11ea9e4400eb8477a9df2a0fe539d47;p=linux-beck.git ixgbe: fix driver version initialization in firmware This patch fixes an issue with storing the driver version for the firmware. If the os does not support the particular firmware management tools, the firmware requires a driver version to be written as 0xFFFFFFFF rather than the actual driver version.
