Subject: caif: __dev_get_by_index instead of dev_get_by_index to find interface
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a74e9426948cce451af0433c69a120178948cb03;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git

caif: __dev_get_by_index instead of dev_get_by_index to find interface

The following call chains indicate that chnl_net_open() is under
rtnl_lock protection as __dev_open() is protected by rtnl_lock.
So if __dev_get_by_index() instead of dev_get_by_index() is used
to find interface handler in it, this would help us avoid to change
interface reference counter.

__dev_open()
  chnl_net_open()
