Subject: [PATCH net 0/2] fixes for XPS configuration after Symmetric queue selection

This fixes some bugs introduced by the "Symmetric queue selection
using XPS for Rx queues".

First, the refactoring of the cleanup function skipped resetting the
queue's NUMA node under some conditions.

Second, the accounting on static keys for XPS and RXQS-XPS is
unbalanced, so the static key for XPS won't actually disable itself,
once enabled. The RXQS-XPS static key can actually be disabled by
reconfiguring a device that didn't have RXQS-XPS configured at all.

Sabrina Dubroca (2):
  net: restore call to netdev_queue_numa_node_write when resetting XPS
  net: fix XPS static_key accounting
