[PATCH net v2] drivers/net/wan/x25_asy: Correct the ndo_open and ndo_stop functions

From: Xie He
Date: Wed Sep 23 2020 - 14:18:25 EST


1.
Move the lapb_register/lapb_unregister calls into the ndo_open/ndo_stop
functions.
This makes the LAPB protocol start/stop when the network interface
starts/stops. When the network interface is down, the LAPB protocol
shouldn't be running and the LAPB module shoudn't be generating control
frames.

2.
Move netif_start_queue/netif_stop_queue into the ndo_open/ndo_stop
functions.
This makes the TX queue start/stop when the network interface
starts/stops.
(netif_stop_queue was originally in the ndo_stop function. But to make
the code look better, I created a new function to use as ndo_stop, and
made it call the original ndo_stop function. I moved netif_stop_queue
from the original ndo_stop function to the new ndo_stop function.)

Change from v1:
In v1, I moved the x25_asy_close call to x25_asy_close_tty.
Now, although I still want to do that change, I think it may be better
to do that in a future patch.
