The netdevice usage count increases during transmit queue timeouts
because netdev_hold is called in ndo_tx_timeout, scheduling a task
to reinitialize the card. Although netdev_put is called at the end
of the scheduled work, rtnl_unlock checks the reference count during
cleanup. This could cause issues if transmit timeout is called on
multiple queues.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
