Subject: [PATCH] sfc: Match calls to netif_napi_add() and netif_napi_del()
Date: Wed, 15 Apr 2009 02:17:30 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1239758250.3203.12.camel@achroite> (raw)

sfc could call netif_napi_add() multiple times for the same
napi_struct, corrupting the list of napi_structs for the associated
device and leading to a busy-loop on device removal.  Move the call to
netif_napi_add() and add a call to netif_napi_del() in the obvious
places.
