[PATCH] bcm43xx: Workaround init_board vs IRQ race.
The proper fix for this is to move IRQ enabling to the end of init_board. But this is nontrivial and needs to be done with care. Stay with this cheap workaround for now. Signed-off-by: Michael Buesch <mbuesch@freenet.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
