From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

From: Greg KH <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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


From: Devendra Naga <devendra.aaru@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit ad1be8d345416a794dea39761a374032aa471a76 ]

when register_netdev fails, the init'ed NAPIs by netif_napi_add must be
deleted with netif_napi_del, and also when driver unloads, it should
delete the NAPI before unregistering netdevice using unregister_netdev.
