From: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@xxxxxxx> Drivers supporting NAPI should use a NAPI-specific function for receiving packets. Hence netif_rx is changed to netif_receive_skb. Furthermore netif_napi_del should be used in the probe and remove function to clean up the NAPI resource information. Thanks to Francois Romieu, David Shwatrz and Rami Rosen for their help on this patch.
