3.11.10.2 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: =?UTF-8?q?fran=C3=A7ois=20romieu?= <romieu@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit bc9627e7e918a85e906c1a3f6d01d9b8ef911a96 upstream.
2fdac010bdcf10a30711b6924612dfc40daf19b8 ("via-velocity.c: update napi
implementation") overlooked an irq disabling spinlock when the Rx part
of the NAPI poll handler was converted from netif_rx to netif_receive_skb.
NAPI Rx processing can be taken out of the locked section with a pair of
napi_{disable / enable} since it only races with the MTU change function.
An heavier rework of the NAPI locking would be able to perform NAPI Tx
before Rx where I simply removed one of velocity_tx_srv calls.
