From 38e6bc185d9544dfad1774b3f8902a0b061aea25 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Amerigo Wang Date: Fri, 10 Aug 2012 01:24:38 +0000 Subject: netpoll: make __netpoll_cleanup non-block Like the previous patch, slave_disable_netpoll() and __netpoll_cleanup() may be called with read_lock() held too, so we should make them non-block, by moving the cleanup and kfree() to call_rcu_bh() callbacks.
