Subject: [PATCH 3.16 150/245] can: mscan: mscan_rx_poll(): fix rx path
 lockup when returning from polling to irq mode

3.16.83-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Florian Faber <faber@...erman.de>

commit 2d77bd61a2927be8f4e00d9478fe6996c47e8d45 upstream.

Under load, the RX side of the mscan driver can get stuck while TX still
works. Restarting the interface locks up the system. This behaviour
could be reproduced reliably on a MPC5121e based system.

The patch fixes the return value of the NAPI polling function (should be
the number of processed packets, not constant 1) and the condition under
which IRQs are enabled again after polling is finished.

With this patch, no more lockups were observed over a test period of ten
days.
