Can we drop those now seeing its per CPU and all list ops are per-cpu inside napi context? Two reasons to consider, with this patch dev_map_flush() is always called even if the list is empty so even in TX case without redirect. But probably more important it makes the locking requirements more clear. Could probably be done in a follow up patch but wanted to bring it up.
