    ionic: use mutex to protect queue operations · 0925e9db
    Shannon Nelson authored
    The ionic_wait_on_bit_lock() was a open-coded mutex knock-off
    used only for protecting the queue reset operations, and there
    was no reason not to use the real thing.  We can use the lock
    more correctly and to better protect the queue stop and start
    operations from cross threading.  We can also remove a useless
    and expensive bit operation from the Rx path.
    
    This fixes a case found where the link_status_check from a link
    flap could run into an MTU change and cause a crash.
    
    Fixes: beead698 ("ionic: Add the basic NDO callbacks for netdev support")
