+Subject: [PATCH] net: add sysfs attribute to control napi threaded mode
+
+This patch adds a new sysfs attribute to the network device class.
+Said attribute provides a per-device control to enable/disable the
+threaded mode for all the napi instances of the given network device,
+without the need for a device up/down.
+User sets it to 1 or 0 to enable or disable threaded mode.
+Note: when switching between threaded and the current softirq based mode
+for a napi instance, it will not immediately take effect if the napi is
+currently being polled. The mode switch will happen for the next time
+napi_schedule() is called.
