Since the entry never gets flushed the unregister of the network device never completes. This version of the patch also adds locking around the reference to the atm arp daemon to avoid races with events and daemon state changes. (Note: barrier() was never really safe) Bug-reference: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6295 Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S. Miller --- Reading git-diff-tree failed
