Move the skb_pool list initialization into __netpoll_setup(). Also, have netpoll_setup() call this before allocating its initial pool of packets. Fixes: 6c59f16f1770 ("net: netpoll: flush skb pool during cleanup")The fixes tag seems to be off by one? Wasn't the problem was introduced by commit 221a9c1df790 ("net: netpoll: Individualize the skb pool") ? Since __netpoll_setup() can be called by other drivers, shouldn't we move refill in there? Since the pool is per np? Optionally, could you extend the netcons tests to exercise netcons over vlan? I think it should be able to trigger the crash you're fixing?
Are you planning to resend this fix with Jakub's suggestion? Thanks --breno
