From 2561cc15e3816e4323f9e79a6890bff94c0bbec2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Zoltan Kiss Date: Mon, 11 Aug 2014 13:01:44 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] xen-netback: Don't deschedule NAPI when carrier off In the patch called "xen-netback: Turn off the carrier if the guest is not able to receive" NAPI was descheduled when the carrier was set off. That's not what most of the drivers do, and we don't have any specific reason to do so as well, so revert that change.
