Hello Horatiu,

Thanks for your reply. In ns83820_remove_one, there is an invoking:

free_irq(dev->pci_dev->irq, ndev);

This will prevent the driver from handling more irq, But it couldn't prevent
the rx_tasklet from being scheduled. So I think we should add the
following code:

tasklet_kill(&dev->rx_tasklet);

after free_irq invoking. Is there anything wrong about my analysis?

Thanks again for pointing the mistake out.

Best regards,
Zheng
