[PATCH 4.6 67/96] qeth: delete napi struct when removing a qeth device

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

 



4.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ursula Braun <ubraun@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 7831b4ff0d926e0deeaabef9db8800ed069a2757 upstream.

A qeth_card contains a napi_struct linked to the net_device during
device probing. This struct must be deleted when removing the qeth
device, otherwise Panic on oops can occur when qeth devices are
repeatedly removed and added.

Fixes: a1c3ed4c9ca ("qeth: NAPI support for l2 and l3 discipline")
