From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@xxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 6 May 2003 15:32:34 -0700 While debugging possible changes to dev refcounting, discovered a couple of places in IPV4 that were directly incrementing rather than using the inline dev_hold. Let's hide the implementation of net device ref counting so future module ref count fixes will be easier. Applied, thanks. If you find any more, just send along another patch :-) |
