From e46b66bc42b6b1430b04cc5c207ecb2b2f4553dc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Hutchings Date: Thu, 8 May 2008 02:53:17 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] net: Added ASSERT_RTNL() to dev_open() and dev_close(). dev_open() and dev_close() must be called holding the RTNL, since they call device functions and netdevice notifiers that are promised the RTNL.
