From 501a248cf6995286a4da0c2aa93c0fa9c5941453 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Hutchings Date: Mon, 27 May 2013 16:52:54 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] sfc: Remove bogus call to efx_release_tx_buffers() efx_unregister_netdev() should not call efx_release_tx_buffers() directly, as it is already done when closing the device: efx_net_stop() -> efx_stop_all() -> efx_stop_datapath() -> efx_fini_tx_queue() -> efx_release_tx_buffers(). (This was presumably a workaround for a race between efx_stop_all() and the data path that has since been properly fixed.)
