So everybody jumped on GRO, while my concern was more the napi->dev thing. I pointed to gro because the commit was about gro, but gro was fine IMHO. Are we sure netpoll is ok ?
Netpoll is dependent on napi->netdev but does not cause problems. The sky2 driver doesn't expose netpoll on second port. The second port has different net_device_ops without netpoll. --
