Subject: [PATCH] net : fix for dst_gc_task not getting scheduled if __dst_free() is called consistently
Date: Sat, 19 May 2012 04:39:54 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1337420394-28115-1-git-send-email-rajan.gupta@freescale.com> (raw)
From: Rajan Gupta <rajan.gupta@freescale.com>
dst_gc_work is cancelled and again rescheduled in __ds_free(). In case
__dsf_free() is consistently called dst_gc_work will never get called resulting in
memory not getting freed at all until one stops calling __dst_free
