something?
Quick grep show following two irq handlers as examples:
ohci_irq_handler() | lynx_irq_handler()
hpsb_bus_reset()
abort_requests()
skb_dequeue()
spin_lock_irqsave()
That spin_lock is called directly from within irq handler.
Yes, definitely. What I wanted to reassure myself about was rather that
no other net/ code besides skbuff.c's touches this queue. IOW only the
ieee1394 low and mid layer control the contexts within which the queue
lock is used.
