Move all driver spinlocks to be taken at sw IRQ context only. This fixes the skb_copy() we were doing with hw IRQs disabled (which is illegal and triggers a BUG() with HIGHMEM enabled). It also simplifies the locking all over the driver tremendously. We accomplish this feat by creating a special sequence to synchronize with the hw IRQ handler using a binary state and synchronize_irq(). This idea is from Herbert Xu. Thanks to Michael Chan for helping to track down all of the race conditions in initial versions of this code. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
