[PATCH net 0/2] r8169: Be drop monitor friendly

[Florian Fainelli]

Hi all,

First patch may be questionable but no other driver appears to be doing that
and while it is defendable to account for left packets as dropped during TX
clean, this appears misleadning. I picked Stanislaw changes which brings us
back to 2010, but this was present from pre-git days as well.

Second patch fixes the two missing calls to dev_consume_skb_any().

  r8169: Do not increment tx_dropped in TX ring cleaning
  r8169: Be drop monitor friendly

[PATCH net 1/2] r8169: Do not increment tx_dropped in TX ring cleaning

[Florian Fainelli]

rtl8169_tx_clear_range() is responsible for cleaning up the TX ring
during interface shutdown, incrementing tx_dropped for every SKB that we
left at the time in the ring is misleading.

[PATCH net 2/2] r8169: Be drop monitor friendly

[Florian Fainelli]

rtl_tx() is the TX reclamation process whereas rtl8169_tx_clear_range() does
the TX ring cleaning during shutdown, both of these functions should call
dev_consume_skb_any() to be drop monitor friendly.
