[PATCH net-next 4/4] virtio_net: Remove rtnl lock protection of command buffers

From: Daniel Jurgens <hidden>
Date: 2024-03-25 21:49:52
Also in: virtualization
Subsystem: networking drivers, the rest, virtio net driver · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds, "Michael S. Tsirkin", Jason Wang

The rtnl lock is no longer needed to protect the control buffer and
command VQ.
