Hi Ben,
The code is a bit tricky. It uses function pointers for the various
register read/write methods. For the 5780, I believe it will be
assigned a simple writel() and not tg3_write32_tx_mbox(). Can you
double check to make sure you have actually added the wmb()?
It's probably easiest to just add the wmb() in tg3_xmit_dma_bug()
before the tw32_tx_mbox().
