Subject: [PATCH 4/8] netpoll: take rcu_read_lock_bh() in netpoll_rx()
Date: Mon,  6 Aug 2012 22:23:28 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1344263012-4031-5-git-send-email-amwang@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1344263012-4031-1-git-send-email-amwang@redhat.com>

In __netpoll_rx(), it dereferences ->npinfo without rcu_dereference_bh(),
this patch fixes it by using the 'npinfo' passed from netpoll_rx()
where it is already dereferenced with rcu_dereference_bh().
