-Subject: [PATCH 150/191] net: Remove preemption disabling in netif_rx()
-
-1)enqueue_to_backlog() (called from netif_rx) should be
- bind to a particluar CPU. This can be achieved by
- disabling migration. No need to disable preemption
-
-2)Fixes crash "BUG: scheduling while atomic: ksoftirqd"
- in case of RT.
- If preemption is disabled, enqueue_to_backog() is called
- in atomic context. And if backlog exceeds its count,
- kfree_skb() is called. But in RT, kfree_skb() might
- gets scheduled out, so it expects non atomic context.
-
--Replace preempt_enable(), preempt_disable() with
- migrate_enable(), migrate_disable() respectively
--Replace get_cpu(), put_cpu() with get_cpu_light(),
- put_cpu_light() respectively
