netpoll info leak
After looking harder, Steve noticed that the netpoll beast leaked a little every time it shutdown for a nap. Not a big leak, but a nuisance kind of thing. He took out his refcount duct tape and patched the leak. It was overkill since there was already other locking in that area, but it looked clean and wouldn't attract fleas.
