Subject[PATCH] [45/50] Staging: hv: netvsc: Fix a bug in accounting transmit slots
Date
2.6.35-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------
From: K. Y. Srinivasan <kys@microsoft.com>

[ upstream commit 9079ce691255792009c446d8c3382507b8d38635 ]

The transmit slots were manipulated without proper locking. Fix this bug by
making the variable tracking the transmit slots atomic.

This patch should be ported to prior stable kernels 2.6.32 and later.
