The netdevice is always available, apply any carrier state changes to it without caching them. On a STARTLAN event (ie. carrier-up), defer updating the state to qeth_core_hardsetup_card() in the subsequent recovery action. Also remove the carrier-state checks from the xmit routines. Stopping transmission on carrier-down is the responsibility of upper-level code (eg see dev_direct_xmit()). Signed-off-by: Julian Wiedmann <jwi@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
