Hello, So far, the mvpp2 driver was using an hrtimer to handle TX completion. This patch series adds support for using TX interrupts (for each CPU) on PPv2.2, the variant of the IP used on Marvell Armada 7K/8K.
Dave: this version can be applied right away, it no longer depends on Antoine's patch series. Antoine series had some comments, so he will have to respin later on. Therefore, let's merge this smaller patch series first. Changes since v1: - Rebased on top of net-next, instead of on top of Antoine's series. - Removed the Device Tree patch, as it shouldn't go through the net tree. Thanks!
