Subject: [PATCH 1/4] cxgb2: rtnl_lock out of loop will be faster
[PATCH 1/4] [NETDEV] cxgb2: rtnl_lock out of loop will be faster
Before this patch, it gets and releases the lock at each
iteration of the loop. Changing unregister_netdev to
unregister_netdevice and locking outside of the loop will
be faster for this approach.
