[Bug 1279081] Re: linux freezes with threadirqs parameter when rt73usb is loaded

 

It would be good to know if when using the threadirqs parameter is a
regression.  If that is the case, we can bisect to identify the commit
that introduced this.

Can you test the following kernels with the threadirqs parameter enabled
and post back if any do not exhibit the bug:

v3.2 final: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.2-precise/
v3.4 final: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.4-quantal/
v3.8 final: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.8-raring
v3.12 final: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.12-trusty/

You don't have to test every kernel, just up until the kernel that first
has this bug.  If 3.2 has the bug, no need to test the rest.

Thanks in advance!
