Since 92fc43b415, rtl8169_tx_timeout ends up
resetting Rx and Tx indexes and thus racing with the NAPI handler via
-> rtl8169_hw_reset
-> rtl_hw_reset
-> rtl8169_init_ring_indexes
What about returning to the original state ?
rtl_hw_reset is only used by rtl8169_hw_reset and rtl8169_init_one.
The latter does not need rtl8169_init_ring_indexes because the indexes
still contain their original values from the newly allocated network
device private data area (i.e. 0).
rtl8169_hw_reset is used by:
1. rtl8169_down
Helper for rtl8169_close. rtl8169_open explicitely inits the indexes
anyway.
2. rtl8169_pcierr_interrupt
Indexes are set by rtl8169_reinit_task.
3. rtl8169_interrupt
rtl8169_hw_reset is needed when the device goes down. See 1.
4. rtl_shutdown
System shutdown handler. Indexes are irrelevant.
5. rtl8169_reset_task
Indexes must be set before rtl_hw_start is called.
6. rtl8169_tx_timeout
Indexes should not be set. This is the job of rtl8169_reset_task anyway.
The removal of rtl8169_hw_reset in rtl8169_tx_timeout and its move in
rtl8169_reset_task do not change the analysis.
