Subject: [PATCH net-next v1 8/9] forcedeth: stats updated with a deferrable timer
Date: Wed,  9 Nov 2011 14:09:22 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <d2cbb40e6b2d06d43e0981ea741ba7fd708c01c7.1320875577.git.david.decotigny@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1320875577.git.david.decotigny@google.com>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1320875577.git.david.decotigny@google.com>

Stats don't need to be updated periodically unless there is at least
an IRQ: mark stats timer as deferrable.
