Subject: datapath: Take a rcu_dereference() in netdev_get_vport()
X-Git-Tag: v1.1.0pre1~66
X-Git-Url: http://git.onelab.eu/?p=sliver-openvswitch.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=f59a10a8b676546d120136e20445212c848e7c95

datapath: Take a rcu_dereference() in netdev_get_vport()

Although not strictly necessary, this will make this
function more consistent when compatibility for 2.6.36 is added.
