You still need to address the issue of synchronization. dql purposefully doesn't use locking, always because a higher level object (in this case the netdev TX queue) it is contained within provides the synchronization. That breaks apart once you share the dql between two netdevs, as you are proposing here. You'll have to add locking, which is expensive. That's why I'm trying to encourage you to think out of the box and find some way to solve the issue without having to access shared state shared between multiple devices. Thanks.
