That includes updating a statistics protected by\nspinlock. Function igb_update_stats in this case will be protected\nagainst preemption. According to number of a statistics registers\n(cca 60), processing this function might cause additional cpu load\n on CPU0.\n\nIn case of statistics spinlock may be replaced with mutex, which\nreduce latency on CPU0.\n\nCC: Bernhard Kaindl  <bernhard.kaindl@thalesgroup.com>\nCC: Jan Jablonsky <jan.jablonsky@thalesgroup.com>\nSigned-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com>\n---\n drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb/igb.h         |  2 +-\n drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb/igb_ethtool.c |  4 ++--\n drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb/igb_main.c    | 14 +++++++-------\n 3 files changed, 10 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-)",
