Merge branch 'snmp-stats-update'
Eric Dumazet says: ==================== net: snmp: update SNMP methods In the old days (before linux-3.0), SNMP counters were duplicated, one set for user context, and anther one for BH context. After commit 8f0ea0fe ("snmp: reduce percpu needs by 50%") we have a single copy, and what really matters is preemption being enabled or disabled, since we use this_cpu_inc() or __this_cpu_inc() respectively. This patch series kills the obsolete STATS_USER() helpers, and rename all XXX_BH() helpers to __XXX() ones, to more closely match conventions used to update per cpu variables. This is probably going to hurt maintainers job for a while, since cherry-picks will not be clean, but this had to be cleaned at one point. I am so sorry guys. ==================== Signed-off-by:David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
