[PATCH 1/2 net-next] sunvnet: free pending tx buffers before clearing ring data

From: David L Stevens <hidden>
Date: 2015-01-26 20:54:39
Subsystem: networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

 This patch moves the clearing of ring data in vnet_port_free_tx_bufs to after
 the freeing of pending buffers in the ring. Otherwise, this can result in
 dereferencing a NULL pointer.
