From 6fcc1ac91b65e4467d9bad26c0b903785e689bae Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Xie He Date: Thu, 18 Mar 2021 12:07:47 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] net: lapbether: Close the LAPB device before its underlying Ethernet device closes When a virtual LAPB device's underlying Ethernet device closes, the LAPB device is also closed. However, currently the LAPB device is closed after the Ethernet device closes. It would be better to close it before the Ethernet device closes. This would allow the LAPB device to transmit a last frame to notify the other side that it is disconnecting. Signed-off-by: Xie He Signed-off-by: David S.
