Subject[RFC][PATCH] smc91x: let smc91x work well with netpoll
From
Date
This patch changes too much and I didn't have the environment to test, so it is unverified patch.
That's why I separate it from my previous patch, and send it solely as a RFC patch.


Hi Nicolas,
Given that you are the maintainer of "smc91x" driver since 2004. Could you say somethings about this
patch? Your input on this patch is greatly appreciated. :-)


Thank you very much,
Dongdong

- local_irq_enable(); \
+ local_irq_restore(flags); \

Here, for "__ret = spin_trylock(lock)", I didn't use
spin_trylock_irqsave() to replace spin_trylock(), because
the current irq state have got by local_irq_save(flags).
