3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Felix Fietkau <nbd@xxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 52f48d0d9aaa621ffa5e08d79da99a3f8c93b848 ] Since commit 7b0c5f21f348a66de495868b8df0284e8dfd6bbf "sierra_net: keep status interrupt URB active", sierra_net triggers status interrupt polling before the net_device is opened (in order to properly receive the sync message response). To be able to receive further interrupts, the interrupt urb needs to be re-submitted, so this patch removes the bogus check for netif_running().
