[ 36/79] be2net: Fix to avoid hardware workaround when not needed

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Jul 26 2013 - 17:36:32 EST


3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sarveshwar Bandi <sarveshwar.bandi@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 52fe29e4bb614367c108b717c6d7fe5953eb7af3 ]

Hardware workaround requesting hardware to skip vlan insertion is necessary
only when umc or qnq is enabled. Enabling this workaround in other scenarios
could cause controller to stall.
