OK, here's an update to me my patch 8/17 'br2684: don't send frames on
not-ready vcc'. It takes the socket lock and does fairly much the same
thing as your pppoatm version. It returns NETDEV_TX_BUSY and stops the
queue if the socket is locked, and it gets woken from the ->release_cb
callback.

I've dropped your Acked-By: since it's mostly new, but feel free to give
me a fresh one. With this I think we're done.

Unless Chas has any objections, I'll ask Dave to pull it...

Subject: [PATCH] br2684: don't send frames on not-ready vcc

Avoid submitting packets to a vcc which is being closed. Things go badly
wrong when the ->pop method gets later called after everything's been
torn down.

Use the ATM socket lock for synchronisation with vcc_destroy_socket(),
which clears the ATM_VF_READY bit under the same lock. Otherwise, we
could end up submitting a packet to the device driver even after its
->ops->close method has been called. And it could call the vcc's ->pop
method after the protocol has been shut down. Which leads to a panic.
