Re: [PATCH net 1/1] bnx2x: recognize fan failure

If fan failure is detected, MCP prevents PCI I/O registers from being
mapped to the bar, causing a fatal error as driver is unaware.

This patch recognizes such an event occurred and gracefully terminates
the probe process.

Hi Dave,

This patch prevents a fatal error on newer bnx2x boards.

Please consider applying it to 'net'.
Too late, I've applied it to net-next.  I'm not asking Linus to hold back
an already delayed released for such a rarely triggering issue such as this
one.
