      net: Eliminate flush_scheduled_work() calls while RTNL is held. · 4bb073c0
      David S. Miller 提交于
      If the RTNL is held when we invoke flush_scheduled_work() we could
      deadlock.  One such case is linkwatch, it is a work struct which tries
      to grab the RTNL semaphore.
      
      The most common case are net driver ->stop() methods.  The
      simplest conversion is to instead use cancel_{delayed_}work_sync()
      explicitly on the various work struct the driver uses.
      
      This is an OK transformation because these work structs are doing
      things like resetting the chip, restarting link negotiation, and so
      forth.  And if we're bringing down the device, we're about to turn the
      chip off and reset it anways.  So if we cancel a pending work event,
      that's fine here.
      
      Some drivers were working around this deadlock by using a msleep()
      polling loop of some sort, and those cases are converted to instead
      use cancel_{delayed_}work_sync() as well.

      [NET]: Undo code bloat in hot paths due to print_mac(). · 21f644f3
      David S. Miller 提交于
      If print_mac() is used inside of a pr_debug() the compiler
      can't see that the call is redundant so still performs it
      even of pr_debug() ends up being a nop.
      
      So don't use print_mac() in such cases in hot code paths,
      use MAC_FMT et al. instead.
      
      As noted by Joe Perches, pr_debug() could be modified to
      handle this better, but that is a change to an interface
      used by the entire kernel and thus needs to be validated
      carefully.  This here is thus the less risky fix for
      2.6.25
