bnx2x: Tx barriers and locks
[Resending with the proper subject. Sorry for the mess. ]
This patch is based on the RFC of Stanislaw Gruszka.
More specifically it fixes two possible races:
- One, described by Stanislaw, may lead to permanent disabling of the Tx
queue.
This is fixed by adding the smp_wmb() to propagate the BD consumer
change towards the memory.
- Second may lead to bnx2x_start_xmit() returning NETDEV_TX_BUSY.
This is fixed by taking a tx_lock() before rechecking the number of
available Tx BDs.
thanks,
vlad
