From b9a8460a08a1e0150073cda3e7a0dd23cb888052 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Chan Date: Mon, 6 Jun 2016 02:37:14 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] bnxt_en: Fix tx push race condition. Set the is_push flag in the software BD before the tx data is pushed to the chip. It is possible to get the tx interrupt as soon as the tx data is pushed. The tx handler will not handle the event properly if the is_push flag is not set and it will crash. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan Signed-off-by: David S.
