From f1f28aa3510ddb84c966bac65611bb866c77a092 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "David S. Miller" Date: Tue, 15 Jul 2008 00:08:33 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] netdev: Add addr_list_lock to struct net_device. This will be used to protect the per-device unicast and multicast address lists, as well as the callbacks into the drivers which configure such state such as ->set_rx_mode() and ->set_multicast_list().
