[PATCH net-next] net-next/hinic: Fix a case of Tx Queue is Stopped forever

From: Aviad Krawczyk
Date: Tue Sep 26 2017 - 14:12:36 EST


Fix the following scenario:
1. tx_free_poll is running on cpu X
2. xmit function is running on cpu Y and fails to get sq wqe
3. tx_free_poll frees wqes on cpu X and checks the queue is not stopped
4. xmit function stops the queue after failed to get sq wqe
5. The queue is stopped forever
