[PATCH] net: hsr: Setup and delete proxy prune timer only when RedBox is enabled

[PATCH] net: hsr: Setup and delete proxy prune timer only when RedBox is enabled

[Lukasz Majewski]

The timer for removing entries in the ProxyNodeTable shall be only active
when the HSR driver works as RedBox (HSR-SAN).

Moreover, the obsolete del_timer_sync() is replaced with
timer_delete_sync().

This patch improves fix from commit 3c668cef61ad
("net: hsr: init prune_proxy_timer sooner") as the prune node
timer shall be setup only when HSR RedBox is supported in the node.

Is it problematic to init/ delete the timer in non-redbox mode? It looks
easier and it is not a hotpath.

My concern is only with resource allocation - when RedBox is not
enabled the resources for this particular, not used timer are allocated
anyway.

If this can be omitted - then we can drop the patch.

timer_setup() does not allocate any resources. The initialisation is
pure static assignment. The timer subsystem does not look at this timer
until mod_timer() is invoked (or something similar).

Thanks for the clarification.

Considering the above - please just drop this patch.
