Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/6] net: hold instance lock around NETDEV_DOWN/GOING_DOWN
Date: Tue, 30 Jun 2026 11:21:24 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260630182129.1601784-2-sdf@fomichev.me> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260630182129.1601784-1-sdf@fomichev.me>
Mirror what call_netdevice_register_net_notifiers does but for the
teardown. Cover only DOWN and GOING_DOWN. UNREGISTER is still unlocked
because of the SW devices using dev_xxx methods.
