[PATCH 2/2] net: make dev_disable_lro use physical device if passed a vlan dev (v2)

From: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com>
Date: 2011-05-24 18:31:31
Subsystem: networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

If the device passed into dev_disable_lro is a vlan, then repoint the dev
poniter so that we actually modify the underlying physical device.
