Comment 6 for bug 1428111

Thanks for testing!

There are two commits in v4.0 that may be the fix:
d0af71a tg3: Hold tp->lock before calling tg3_halt() from tg3_init_one()
20d14a5 tg3: move init/deinit from open/close to probe/remove

I built a Vivid test kernel with a cherry-pick of these two commits. It can be downloaded from:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1428111/

Can you test this kernel and see if it resolves this bug?

Note that you will need to install both the linux-image and linux-image-extra .deb packages.
