Date: Tue, 15 Feb 2011 20:14:21 +0000 From: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@...arflare.com> To: David Miller <davem@...emloft.net> Cc: netdev@...r.kernel.org, linux-net-drivers@...arflare.com, Tom Herbert <therbert@...gle.com>, John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@...el.com> Subject: [PATCH net-next-2.6 2/5] net: Adjust TX queue kobjects if number of queues changes during unregister If the root qdisc for a net device is mqprio, and the driver's ndo_setup_tc() operation dynamically adds and remvoes TX queues, netif_set_real_num_tx_queues() will be called during device unregistration to remove the extra TX queues when the qdisc is destroyed. Currently this causes the corresponding kobjects to be leaked, and the device's reference count never drops to 0.
