From: Yoshihiro Shimoda <yoshihiro.shimoda.uh@renesas.com> stable inclusion from linux-4.19.207 commit 044e7097e849366dfc71cccfc5d8c8a97cb3f010 -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit 0341d5e3d1ee2a36dd5a49b5bef2ce4ad1cfa6b4 ] The cur_tx counter must be incremented after TACT bit of txdesc->status was set. However, a CPU is possible to reorder instructions and/or memory accesses between cur_tx and txdesc->status. And then, if TX interrupt happened at such a timing, the sh_eth_tx_free() may free the descriptor wrongly. So, add wmb() before cur_tx++. Otherwise NETDEV WATCHDOG timeout is possible to happen.
