Commit 136f55f66019 ("net: lan78xx: fix rx handling before first packet is send") was not correctly backported to 4.4. The call to tasklet_schedule() belongs in lan78xx_link_reset(). Fixes: d1fc12d8475c ("net: lan78xx: fix rx handling before first packet is send") Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben.hutchings@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- This is for 4.4 only; the backports to other stable branches look OK. I didn't test the driver on any branch though.
