Subject: [PATCH net-next 01/19] sfc: Skip RX end-of-batch work on channels without an RX queue
Date: Thu, 16 Feb 2012 00:44:30 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1329353070.2565.27.camel@bwh-desktop> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1329352938.2565.26.camel@bwh-desktop>

The code in efx_process_channel() to update the RX queue after each
batch of RX completions works out as a no-op on a TX-only channel
where the RX queue structure is set to all-zeroes, but
(1) efx_channel_get_rx_queue() will BUG() if DEBUG is defined, and
(2) it's a waste of time.
