From c3f26a269c2421f97f10cf8ed05d5099b573af4d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "David S. Miller" Date: Thu, 31 Jul 2008 16:58:50 -0700 Subject: netdev: Fix lockdep warnings in multiqueue configurations. When support for multiple TX queues were added, the netif_tx_lock() routines we converted to iterate over all TX queues and grab each queue's spinlock. This causes heartburn for lockdep and it's not a healthy thing to do with lots of TX queues anyways. So modify this to use a top-level lock and a "frozen" state for the individual TX queues.
