+Subject: [PATCH] net: mvneta: Fix race condition during stopping
+
+When stopping the port, the CPU notifier are still there whereas the
+mvneta_stop_dev function calls mvneta_percpu_disable() on each CPUs.
+It was possible to have a new CPU coming at this point which could be
+racy.
+
+This patch adds a flag preventing executing the code notifier for a new
+CPU when the port is stopping. It also uses the spinlock introduces
+previously. To avoid the deadlock, the lock has been moved outside the
+mvneta_percpu_elect function.
