 Replying to [comment:45 jcardona]:
 > That patch is not relevant to this problem.  We did not see a hardware
 failure (no {{{DNLD_CMD: hw_host_to_card failed}}} message.)

 That patch isn't relevant to _anything_ and probably doesn't even modify
 the output of the compiler by a single byte. The error case there can
 never be reached; we go into an endless loop retrying the command
 immediately instead of giving up, because of the commit at
 http://dev.laptop.org/git?p=olpc-2.6;a=commitdiff;h=3fcfaf4e

 {{{
         do {
                 ret = priv->hw_host_to_card(priv, MVMS_CMD, (u8 *) cmdptr,
 cmdsize);
         } while (ret != 0);

         if (ret != 0) {
 }}}

 This commit is very broken -- do we have a clue what it was actually
 trying to fix?
