Subject: [ 04/32] net: mv643xx_eth: update statistics timer from timer context only
Date: Fri,  1 Nov 2013 14:43:15 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131101214314.778013946@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20131101214313.735463599@linuxfoundation.org>

3.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sebastian Hesselbarth <sebastian.hesselbarth@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit 041b4ddb84989f06ff1df0ca869b950f1ee3cb1c ]

Each port driver installs a periodic timer to update port statistics
by calling mib_counters_update. As mib_counters_update is also called
from non-timer context, we should not reschedule the timer there but
rather move it to timer-only context.
