[Bug 65631] Re: skge driver broken: invalid call to spin_unlock causes system crash

Can anyone confirm the fault still happens when using Gutsy (2.6.22) ?
I've attached a patch for Gutsy to testing.

Although the drivers/net/skge.c and drivers/net/skge.h source has
changed somewhat they still use

drivers/net/skge.h::struct skge_hw {
	void __iomem  	     *regs;
	struct pci_dev	     *pdev;
	spinlock_t	     hw_lock;

....

drivers/net/skge.c::static int __devinit skge_probe(struct pci_dev *pdev,
				const struct pci_device_id *ent)
{
	struct net_device *dev, *dev1;
	struct skge_hw *hw;

...

spin_lock_init(&hw->hw_lock);
