Subject: [PATCH net-next v2] net: change netdev_unregister_timeout_secs min value to 1
Date: Thu, 25 Mar 2021 15:52:45 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210325145245.3160366-1-dvyukov@google.com> (raw)

netdev_unregister_timeout_secs=0 can lead to printing the
"waiting for dev to become free" message every jiffy.
This is too frequent and unnecessary.
Set the min value to 1 second.

Also fix the merge issue introduced by
"net: make unregister netdev warning timeout configurable":
it changed "refcnt != 1" to "refcnt".
