H A Dfec_main.cdiff 6af42d420bcfa0c837911bd5b518fd4a3cfa4fe4 Tue Jul 08 13:40:18 CEST 2014 Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk> net: fec: remove inappropriate calls around fec_restart()

This is the second stage to "move calls to quiesce/resume packet
processing out of fec_restart()", where we remove calls which are not
appropriate to the call site.

In the majority of cases, there is no need to detach and reattach the
interface as we are holding the queue xmit lock across the reset. The
exception to that is in fec_resume(), where we are already detached by
the suspend function. Here, we can remove the call to detach the
interface.

We also do not need to stop the transmit queue. Holding the xmit lock
is enough to ensure that the transmit packet processing is not running
while we perform our task. However, since fec_restart() always cleans
the rings, we call netif_wake_queue() (or netif_device_attach() in the
case of resume) just before dropping the xmit lock. This prevents the
watchdog firing.

Lastly, always call napi_enable() after the device has been reattached
in the resume path so that we know that the transmit packet processing
is already in an enabled state, so we don't call netif_wake_queue()
while detached.
