Hi,


I see that netfront_accel_add_watch and netfront_accel_remove_watch 
functions are _not_ protected by accelerator_mutex in accel.c   Is there 
any specific reason for this?

I see that they sometimes get called twice (and result in BUG_ON) in 
very fast (20ms) domain suspend-resume cycles and I couldn't figure out 
how it is possible :-(
