Antoine Tenart 082297e614 net: mvpp2: do not call txq_done from the Tx path when Tx irqs are used
When Tx IRQs are used, txq_bufs_free() can be called from both the Tx
path and from NAPI poll(). This led to CPU stalls as if these two tasks
(Tx and Poll) are scheduled on two CPUs at the same time, DMA unmapping
operations are done on the same txq buffers.

This patch adds a check not to call txq_done() from the Tx path if Tx
interrupts are used as it does not make sense to do so.

Fixes: edc660fa09 ("net: mvpp2: replace TX coalescing interrupts with hrtimer")

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
