[RFC PATCH 1/3] chelsio: cxgb: Remove ndo_poll_controller()

From: Ahmed S. Darwish
Date: Thu Dec 24 2020 - 08:12:50 EST


Since commit ac3d9dd034e5 ("netpoll: make ndo_poll_controller()
optional"), networking drivers which use NAPI for clearing their TX
completions should not provide an ndo_poll_controller(). Netpoll simply
triggers the necessary TX queues cleanup by synchronously calling the
driver's NAPI poll handler -- with irqs off and a zero budget.

Modify the cxgb's poll method to clear the TX queues upon zero budget.
Per API requirements, make sure to never consume any RX packet in that
case (budget=0), and thus also not to increment the budget upon return.

Afterwards, remove ndo_poll_controller().
