Subject[PATCH v2 2/4] mac802154: Use netif flow control
Date
Use netif_stop_queue() and netif_wake_queue() to control the flow of
packets to mac802154 devices. Since many IEEE 802.15.4 devices have no
output buffer, and since the mac802154 xmit() function is designed to
block, netif_stop_queue() is called after each packet.
