[PATCH net v2] hv_netvsc: Fix a warning of suspicious RCU usage

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This fixes a warning of "suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage"
when nload runs.

Fixes: 776e726bfb34 ("netvsc: fix RCU warning in get_stats")
Signed-off-by: Dexuan Cui <decui@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
---

Changes in v2:
    Made the minimal required change.
	Added a Fixes tag.
	Removed Stephen H.'s Signed-off-by since this is somewhat different from the 
		v1 from him; if there is any bug in v2, it's all my fault. :-)
