Sorry for this poor bugreport, but I haven't had time to track it down
more carefully.
Hardware: Vaio r505te, i815, onboard e100
Kernel: 2.6.12-rc1-mm1 plus patch to fix GlidePoint resume hang
After a swsusp resume, the onboard e100 does not pass traffic. When I

Yesterday I booted my laptop to 2.6.13-rc2-mm1, suspended to swsusp, and
then resumed. It ran fine overnight, including a fair amount of IO
(running firefox, rsyncing ~/Mail/archive from my mail server, hg pull,
etc). This morning I did a swsusp:

I was previously running 2.6.11-rc3 and swsusp was working quite nicely:

Now I've upgraded to 2.6.12-rc1, 423b66b6oJOGN68OhmSrBFxxLOtIEA, and it
no longer works reliably. Almost every time I do the above it blocks in

When iterating through an array, one must be careful to test one's index
variable rather than another similarly-named variable.
The loop will read off the end of conf->disks[] in the following
