Ah, I missed that. You can keep the GFP_ATOMIC then.

But I think the reconfig path may be racy. You disable Rx, but don't
disable napi. NAPI may still be running and doing Rx while you're
trying to free the rx skbs, no?

Once napi is disabled you can disable Tx and then you have full
ownership of the Tx side, no need to hold the lock during
lan966x_fdma_tx_alloc(), I'd think.

Oh, I see, makes sense!
