From 6eecdc5f95a393cb558503123eae9a9a6642e835 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Williams Date: Mon, 6 May 2013 11:29:23 +0000 Subject: usbnet: allow status interrupt URB to always be active Some drivers (sierra_net) need the status interrupt URB active even when the device is closed, because they receive custom indications from firmware. Add functions to refcount the status interrupt URB submit/kill operation so that sub-drivers and the generic driver don't fight over whether the status interrupt URB is active or not. A sub-driver can call usbnet_status_start() at any time, but the URB is only submitted the first time the function is called. Likewise, when the sub-driver is done with the URB, it calls usbnet_status_stop() but the URB is only killed when all users have stopped it. The URB is still killed and re-submitted for suspend/resume, as before, with the same refcount it had at suspend. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams Acked-by: Oliver Neukum Signed-off-by: David S.
