[PATCH net 3/5] net/ncsi: Disable HWA mode when no channels are found

From: Samuel Mendoza-Jonas <sam@mendozajonas.com>
Date: 2017-10-19 02:43:33
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: ncsi library, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Samuel Mendoza-Jonas, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

From: Gavin Shan <redacted>

When there are no NCSI channels probed, HWA (Hardware Arbitration)
mode is enabled. It's not correct because HWA depends on the fact:
NCSI channels exist and all of them support HWA mode. This disables
HWA when no channels are probed.
