| |
what is the job of chipset_init in comparison to the netcard probe?
What I can imagine is that netcard_probe checks if the hardware is there in the first place. But of cause the Hardware should be initialised, too, in that process, shouldn't it? chipset_init would be used to reinitialisie hardware which needs to be reset for some reason.
