    [NETPOLL]: Introduce a netpoll_info struct · 115c1d6e
    Jeff Moyer 提交于
    This patch introduces a netpoll_info structure, which the struct net_device
    will now point to instead of pointing to a struct netpoll.  The reason for
    this is two-fold: 1) fields such as the rx_flags, poll_owner, and poll_lock
    should be maintained per net_device, not per netpoll;  and 2) this is a first
    step in providing support for multiple netpoll clients to register against the
    same net_device.
    
    The struct netpoll is now pointed to by the netpoll_info structure.  As
    such, the previous behaviour of the code is preserved.
