netpoll: more efficient locking
Callers of netpoll_poll_lock() own NAPI_STATE_SCHED Callers of netpoll_poll_unlock() have BH blocked between the NAPI_STATE_SCHED being cleared and poll_lock is released. We can avoid the spinlock which has no contention, and use cmpxchg() on poll_owner which we need to set anyway. This removes a possible lockdep violation after the cited commit, since sk_busy_loop() re-enables BH before calling busy_poll_stop() Fixes: 217f69743681 ("net: busy-poll: allow preemption in sk_busy_loop()") Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
