netpoll: disable netpoll when enslave a device
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
V3: rename NETDEV_ENSLAVE to NETDEV_JOIN

Currently we do nothing when we enslave a net device which is running netconsole.
Neil pointed out that we may get weird results in such case, so let's disable
netpoll on the device being enslaved. I think it is too harsh to prevent
the device being ensalved if it is running netconsole.

By the way, this patch also removes the NETDEV_GOING_DOWN from netconsole
netdev notifier, because netpoll will check if the device is running or not
and we don't handle NETDEV_PRE_UP neither.

This patch is based on net-next-2.6.
