Probably not needed here, but it does make it consistent with other
similar checks across the file. Just looks more descriptive.

Is this if clause worth it? All it does is jump over the for loop, which would 
not be executed anyway, since the initial test (0 < 0) would fail.

You have introduced a semantic change with the above if clause. The 
xenvif_stats array was previously zeroed if num_queues < 1. It appears that 
ethtool does actually allocate a zeroed array to pass in here, but I wonder 
whether it is still safer to have this function zero it anyway.

[PATCH net v2] xen-netback: fix race condition on XenBus disconnect

2017-03-03 Thread Igor Druzhinin 
In some cases during XenBus disconnect event handling and subsequent
queue resource release there may be some TX handlers active on
other processors. Use RCU in order to synchronize with them.
