From 26faa9d777718380c56419861370c3fe06a78c15 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Eric W. Biederman" Date: Sat, 15 Mar 2014 17:29:34 -0700 Subject: ibmveth: Call dev_consume_skb_any instead of dev_kfree_skb. Replace dev_kfree_skb with dev_consume_skb_any in ibmveth_start_xmit that can be called in hard irq and other contexts. In this code path the packet can have either been transmitted or dropped, dev_consume_skb_any was choosen because that preserves the existing semantics of the code, and a transmitted packet is more likely.
