[ Upstream commit 4b1bd9db078f7d5332c8601a2f5bd43cf0458fd4 ] It's a resource, not a parameter, so we can't copy it into the new channel's TX queues, otherwise aliasing will lead to resource- management bugs if the channel is subsequently torn down without being initialised. Before the Fixes:-tagged commit there was a similar bug with tsoh_page, but I'm not sure it's worth doing another fix for such old kernels.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
