David S. Miller 7480888f27 Merge branch 'r8152-napi-fixes'
Hayes Wang says:

====================
r8152: fix scheduling napi

v3:
simply the argument for patch #3. Replace &tp->napi with napi.

v2:
Add smp_mb__after_atomic() for patch #1.

v1:
Scheduling the napi during the following periods would let it be ignored.
And the events wouldn't be handled until next napi_schedule() is called.

1. after napi_disable and before napi_enable().
2. after all actions of napi function is completed and before calling
   napi_complete().

If no next napi_schedule() is called, tx or rx would stop working.

In order to avoid these situations, the followings solutions are applied.

1. prevent start_xmit() from calling napi_schedule() during runtime suspend
   or after napi_disable().
2. re-schedule the napi for tx if it is necessary.
3. check if any rx is finished or not after napi_enable().

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
