[PATCH V4 net 1/3] Revert "tuntap: add missing xdp flush"

From: Jason Wang <hidden>
Date: 2018-02-24 03:32:36
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: networking drivers, the rest, tun/tap driver · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds, Willem de Bruijn, Jason Wang

This reverts commit 762c330d670e3d4b795cf7a8d761866fdd1eef49. The
reason is we try to batch packets for devmap which causes calling
xdp_do_flush() in the process context. Simply disabling preemption
may not work since process may move among processors which lead
xdp_do_flush() to miss some flushes on some processors.

So simply revert the patch, a follow-up patch will add the xdp flush
correctly.
