From 160ff18a07f3a505d452dcced8e45ecdd0a85506 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Greear Date: Wed, 1 Jun 2011 07:18:52 +0000 Subject: af-packet: Hold reference to bound network devices. Old code was probably safe, but with this change we can actually use the netdev object, not just compare the pointer values. Signed-off-by: Ben Greear Signed-off-by: David S.
