Andy reported pch_gbe triggered "NETDEV WATCHDOG" errors. May 11 11:06:09 kontron kernel: WARNING: at net/sched/sch_generic.c:261 dev_watchdog+0x1ec/0x200() (Not tainted) May 11 11:06:09 kontron kernel: Hardware name: N/A May 11 11:06:09 kontron kernel: NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0 (pch_gbe): transmit queue 0 timed out It seems pch_gbe has a racy tx path (races with TX completion path) Remove tx_queue_lock lock since it has no purpose, we must use tx_lock instead.
