Subject: [PATCH v2] Revert "vrf: Remove unnecessary RCU-bh critical section"
Date: Wed, 25 Sep 2024 11:52:16 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240925185216.1990381-1-greearb@candelatech.com> (raw)

From: Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com>

This reverts commit 504fc6f4f7f681d2a03aa5f68aad549d90eab853.

dev_queue_xmit_nit needs to run with bh locking, otherwise
it conflicts with packets coming in from a nic in softirq
context and packets being transmitted from user context.
