The driver is marked as "Orphaned" now and this is the first time I am trying to send a patch for an orphaned driver. MAINTAINERS file only gives the Wireless mailing list and the rest of CC list was generated by get_maintainer.pl script. I could not find any relevant information on how to send patches for orphaned drivers in kernel docs. Can you, please, give me some advice on a process of submitting patches to orphaned drivers or, if there is any relevant documentation on the topic, can you share a link? > > In order to avoid potential data races and leading dereference of a > > NULL pointer, acquire the queue lock before any work with the queue > > is done and replace all skb_* calls with their lockless version. > > You should explain why the locking changes are OK. > Ok, I'll improve the patch description, thank you! > johannes Kind regards, Daniil Dulov
