Subject: [PATCH] sky2: initialize napi before registering device
Date: Sat, 25 Jan 2014 11:34:54 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140125103454.GA2490@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
There is race condition when call netif_napi_add() after
register_netdevice(), as ->open() can be called without napi initialized
and trigger BUG_ON() on napi_enable(), like on below messages:
[ 9.699863] sky2: driver version 1.30

To fix the problem patch changes the order of initialization.
