[PATCH] net: Fix incorrect comment in netif_tx_stop_queue()

From: Ilya Shchepetkov
Date: Mon Aug 13 2012 - 10:43:41 EST


netif_stop_queue() can be called before register_netdev() because now
TX queues are allocated inside alloc_netdev_mqs().

(since ed9af2e839c06c18f721da2c768fbb444c4a10e5 commit)
