[PATCH net-next 6/8] netvsc: need rcu_derefence when accessing internal device info

Stephen Hemminger stephen at networkplumber.org
Wed Jul 19 18:53:17 UTC 2017


The netvsc_device structure should be accessed by rcu_dereference
in the send path.  Change arguments to netvsc_send() to make
this easier to do correctly.

Remove no longer needed hv_device_to_netvsc_device.
