2019-06-09	net: hwbm: Make the hwbm_pool lock a mutex	Sebastian Andrzej Siewior	1	-8/+7
	Based on review, `lock' is only acquired in hwbm_pool_add() which is invoked via ->probe(), ->resume() and ->ndo_change_mtu(). Based on this the lock can become a mutex and there is no need to disable interrupts during the procedure. Now that the lock is a mutex, hwbm_pool_add() no longer invokes hwbm_pool_refill() in an atomic context so we can pass GFP_KERNEL to hwbm_pool_refill() and remove the `gfp' argument from hwbm_pool_add().

2016-05-25	net: hwbm: Fix unbalanced spinlock in error case	Gregory CLEMENT	1	-0/+3
	When hwbm_pool_add exited in error the spinlock was not released. This patch fixes this issue.

2016-03-14	net: add a hardware buffer management helper API	Gregory CLEMENT	1	-0/+87
	This basic implementation allows to share code between driver using hardware buffer management. As the code is hardware agnostic, there is few helpers, most of the optimization brought by the an HW BM has to be done at driver level.
