This is the one spot causing a device to make the transition to unregistered state, so passing that specific device to flush_backlog() is the completely logical way to handle this. If this is some hack that is made necessary by your parallel notification scheme, I do not find it acceptable. I'm not applying this series, sorry. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
