This netif_running check is to find which interface is up as the interrupt is shared by both the interfaces. When first interface is down and second interface is active then napi_schedule for first interface will fail and second interface napi needs to be scheduled. So I don't think netif_running needs to be removed. Regards Mugunthan V N
