Hmm okay...
Sooo, netdev_trig_work cannot be executed at the same time as the
link/linkup/rx/tx changing stuff from netdev_trig_notify,
interval_store or netdev_led_attr_store, because all these functions
ensure cancelation of netdev_trig_work by calling
cancel_delayed_work_sync. Doesn't this somehow prevent the need for
memory barriers provided by atomic bitops?
BTW Jacek what do you think about the other patches?
Marek
