Subject: net: Remove preemption disabling in netif_rx()
From: Priyanka Jain <Priyanka.Jain@freescale.com>
Date: Thu, 17 May 2012 09:35:11 +0530
1)enqueue_to_backlog() (called from netif_rx) should be
bind to a particluar CPU. This can be achieved by
disabling migration. No need to disable preemption
2)Fixes crash "BUG: scheduling while atomic: ksoftirqd"
in case of RT.
If preemption is disabled, enqueue_to_backog() is called
in atomic context. And if backlog exceeds its count,
kfree_skb() is called. But in RT, kfree_skb() might
gets scheduled out, so it expects non atomic context.
-Replace preempt_enable(), preempt_disable() with
migrate_enable(), migrate_disable() respectively
-Replace get_cpu(), put_cpu() with get_cpu_light(),
put_cpu_light() respectively
