OK actually, I'm not going to fix the commit log, you'll probably have
to resend it anyway.

This doesn't really make much sense? Not sure why that is even updating
anything at all, it doesn't update anything else?
Or at least you didn't change anything else, maybe you should have?

That seems unrelated.

Picking this for no particular reason - everything else in this patch is
unnecessary since we have rx_path_lock held afaict, so it doesn't
matter. The whole per-cpu status stuff only matters once you get into
fast-rx path.
I'd argue that had you written a proper commit log that actually says
why you need to change things, you'd probably even have noticed these
issues yourself.
