Upon a configuration change that requires the allocation of new resources, we first try to allocate, prior to destroying the current ones. Once it is successfully done, we release the old resources and attach the new ones. Otherwise, we stay with a functioning interface having the same old configuration. This improvement became of greater significance after removing the use of vmap. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller --- 5ec6df777b5e76398e8f1fbbe7cd21e78890c71a
