Subject: packet: less dev_put() calls
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=654d1f8a019dfa06d;p=linux-beck.git

packet: less dev_put() calls

- packet_sendmsg_spkt() can use dev_get_by_name_rcu() to avoid touching device refcount.

- packet_getname_spkt() & packet_getname() can use dev_get_by_index_rcu() to
  avoid touching device refcount too.

tpacket_snd() & packet_snd() can not use RCU yet because they can sleep when
allocating skb.
