I'm assuming this is a bug in eeepc-laptop. The only eeepc-laptop commit between 2.6.31-rc6 and 2.6.31-rc5 (last known good) is 7334546a52c6764df120459509b1f803a073eacc "eepc-laptop: fix hot-unplug on resume"
Confused. oes this mean that your "eeepc-laptop: fix hot-unplug on resume" is broken and needs fixing or reverting?
Yes, although I'm not sure why and don't have confirmation. "fix hot-unplug on resume" was a fix for my other commit in 2,6.31-rc - 96e9cfeb9692b0bc6e03f9b6f9cb3c67a40b76d1 "eeepc-laptop: read rfkill soft-blocked state on resume" so they should be reverted together if necessary.
the patches are still not reverted. Alan, what's the status of this bug?
The patches are indeed not reverted, but I have replaced their code in a patch which is now in linus' tree. I'm hoping the bug was due to my abuse of a workqueue for synchronisation, which has now been replaced by a mutex. Len didn't want to revert until we confirmed that it worked, but the original reporter stopped talking. So I think all we can do is close this bug, and keep an ear out for similar reports. Thanks for poking.
sounds good. thanks. :)
