The reason that I am passing the netdev instead of ring pointer is
that the netif_start_subqueue() need a netdev parameter, and the
netdev can not be derived from the ring pointer.

Do you think it is better to keep it as this patch, or add a new
netdevice parameter? like below:

static int hns3_nic_maybe_stop_tx(struct net_device *netdev,
				  struct hns3_enet_ring *ring,
				  struct sk_buff **out_skb)
