Merge branch 'net-maintain-netif-vs-dev-prefix-semantics'
Stanislav Fomichev says:
====================
net: maintain netif vs dev prefix semantics
Commit cc34acd577f1 ("docs: net: document new locking reality")
introduced netif_ vs dev_ function semantics: the former expects locked
netdev, the latter takes care of the locking. We don't strictly
follow this semantics on either side, but there are more dev_xxx handlers
now that don't fit. Rename them to netif_xxx where appropriate. We care only
about driver-visible APIs, don't touch stack-internal routines.
The rest seem to be ok:
* dev_xdp_prog_count - mostly called by sw drivers (bonding), should not matter
* dev_get_by_xxx - too many to reasonably cleanup, already have different flavors
* dev_fetch_sw_netstats - don't need instance lock
* dev_get_tstats64 - never called directly, only as an ndo callback
* dev_pick_tx_zero - never called directly, only as an ndo callback
* dev_add_pack / dev_remove_pack - called early enough (in module init) to not matter
* dev_get_iflink - mostly called by sw drivers, should not matter
* dev_fill_forward_path - ditto
* dev_getbyhwaddr_rcu - ditto
* dev_getbyhwaddr - ditto
* dev_getfirstbyhwtype - ditto
* dev_valid_name - ditto
* __dev_forward_skb dev_forward_skb dev_queue_xmit_nit - established helpers, no netif vs dev distinction
