3.6.11.1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: "David S. Miller" <davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 559bcac35facfed49ab4f408e162971612dcfdf3 ]
1) rhine_tx() should use dev_kfree_skb() not dev_kfree_skb_irq()
2) rhine_slow_event_task's NAPI triggering logic is racey, it
should just hit the interrupt mask register. This is the
same as commit 7dbb491878a2c51d372a8890fa45a8ff80358af1
("r8169: avoid NAPI scheduling delay.") made to fix the same
problem in the r8169 driver. From Francois Romieu.
