[PATCH net-next v2 08/11] net: protect threaded status of NAPI with netdev_lock()

From: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
Date: 2025-01-15 03:53:41
Subsystem: networking drivers, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

Now that NAPI instances can't come and go without holding
netdev->lock we can trivially switch from rtnl_lock() to
netdev_lock() for setting netdev->threaded via sysfs.

Note that since we do not lock netdev_lock around sysfs
calls in the core we don't have to "trylock" like we do
with rtnl_lock.
