[PATCH CFT 22/30] net: fec: quiesce packet processing when taking link down in fec_enet_adjust_link()

From: Russell King <hidden>
Date: 2014-06-27 15:20:45
Also in: linux-arm-kernel
Subsystem: freescale imx / mxc fec driver, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Wei Fang, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

When the link goes down, the adjust_link method will be called, but
there is no synchronisation to ensure that we won't be processing some
last remaining packets via the NAPI handlers while performing a reset of
the device.

Add the necessary synchronisation to ensure that packet processing
is complete before we stop and reset the FEC.
