+Subject: [PATCH] Revert "MIPS: BCM47XX: Enable 74K Core ExternalSync for PCIe
+ erratum"
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+This reverts commit 2a027b47dba6b77ab8c8e47b589ae9bbc5ac6175.
+
+Enabling ExternalSync caused a regression for BCM4718A1 (used e.g. in
+Netgear E3000 and ASUS RT-N16): it simply hangs during PCIe
+initialization. It's likely that BCM4717A1 is also affected.
+
+I didn't notice that earlier as the only BCM47XX devices with PCIe I
+own are:
+1) BCM4706 with 2 x 14e4:4331
+2) BCM4706 with 14e4:4360 and 14e4:4331
+it appears that BCM4706 is unaffected.
+
+While BCM5300X-ES300-RDS.pdf seems to document that erratum and its
+workarounds (according to quotes provided by Tokunori) it seems not even
+Broadcom follows them.
+
+According to the provided info Broadcom should define CONF7_ES in their
+SDK's mipsinc.h and implement workaround in the si_mips_init(). Checking
+both didn't reveal such code. It *could* mean Broadcom also had some
+problems with the given workaround.
