stmmac: protect tx process with lock (V4)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This patch fixes a problem raised on Orly ARM SMP platform
where, in case of fragmented frames, the descriptors
in the TX ring resulted broken. This was due to a missing lock
protection in the tx process.
