Re: [Bug 252165] usb network and mii bus media status race condition

Has anybody tried this patch? I've got a Pi2B using a usb wifi dongle
via the run driver which consistently drops connections after a few
minutes. If this patch helps it'll be very good news. 

If there are any traps please post.

Thanks for reading,
