Subject: [RESEND NET-NEXT PATCH 17/20] net: add netif_napi_del function to allow for removal of napistructs
Date: Tue, 08 Jul 2008 15:13:05 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080708221219.1518.92921.stgit@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20080708220046.1518.88457.stgit@localhost.localdomain>

From: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@intel.com>

Adds netif_napi_del function which is used to remove the napi struct from
the netdev napi_list in cases where CONFIG_NETPOLL was enabled.
The motivation for adding this is to handle the case in which the number of
queues on a device changes due to a configuration change.  Previously the
napi structs for each queue would be left in the list until the netdev was
freed.
