Subject: mv643xx_eth: avoid dropping tx lock during transmit reclaim
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a418950c1378c4a3722baecdbe98df78ea23f231;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

mv643xx_eth: avoid dropping tx lock during transmit reclaim

By moving DMA unmapping during transmit reclaim back under the netif
tx lock, we avoid the situation where we read the DMA address and buffer
length from the descriptor under the lock and then not do anything with
that data after dropping the lock on platforms where the DMA unmapping
routines are all NOPs (which is the case on all ARM platforms that
mv643xx_eth is used on at least).

This saves two uncached reads, which makes a small but measurable
performance difference in routing benchmarks.
