This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net: stmmac: Fix incorrect location to set real_num_rx|tx_queues to the 5.8-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: net-stmmac-fix-incorrect-location-to-set-real_num_rx.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.8 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 498a74f66549a53abfde4b972a6136201eacc1ae Author: Aashish Verma <aashishx.verma@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Sep 15 09:28:39 2020 +0800 net: stmmac: Fix incorrect location to set real_num_rx|tx_queues [ Upstream commit 686cff3d7022ddf35d7e38bc80191eb92de5989a ] netif_set_real_num_tx_queues() & netif_set_real_num_rx_queues() should be used to inform network stack about the real Tx & Rx queue (active) number in both stmmac_open() and stmmac_resume(), therefore, we move the code from stmmac_dvr_probe() to stmmac_hw_setup().
