[PATCH net-next v3 2/4] net: remove redundant ASSERT_RTNL() in queue setup functions

From: Stanislav Fomichev <hidden>
Date: 2025-06-10 17:15:27
Also in: intel-wired-lan, linux-kselftest, linux-rdma, lkml
Subsystem: networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

The existing netdev_ops_assert_locked() already asserts that either
the RTNL lock or the per-device lock is held, making the explicit
ASSERT_RTNL() redundant.
