From: Greg KH <gre...@linuxfoundation.org> 3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Mitch A Williams <mitch.a.willi...@intel.com> commit 0e90b49ca4b891f085b57559a3071a4feefb496c upstream. Using ethtool -C ethX rx-usecs 0 crashes with a divide by zero. Refactor this function to fix this issue and make it more clear what the intent of each conditional is. Add comment regarding using a setting of zero.
