[PATCH 4.4 04/47] net: lan78xx: Fix misplaced tasklet_schedule() call

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Sep 07 2018 - 17:41:17 EST


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

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

From: Ben Hutchings <ben.hutchings@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Commit 136f55f66019 ("net: lan78xx: fix rx handling before first
packet is send") was not correctly backported to 4.4. The call to
tasklet_schedule() belongs in lan78xx_link_reset().

Fixes: d1fc12d8475c ("net: lan78xx: fix rx handling before first packet is send")

This is for 4.4 only; the backports to other stable branches look OK.
I didn't test the driver on any branch though.

Ben.
