    usb: gadget: u_ether: remove interrupt throttling · fd9afd3c
    Felipe Balbi authored Nov 01, 2016
    
    
    According to Dave Miller "the networking stack has a
    hard requirement that all SKBs which are transmitted
    must have their completion signalled in a fininte
    amount of time. This is because, until the SKB is
    freed by the driver, it holds onto socket,
    netfilter, and other subsystem resources."
    
    In summary, this means that using TX IRQ throttling
    for the networking gadgets is, at least, complex and
    we should avoid it for the time being.
