__netdev_tx_sent_queue() was introduced by:
commit 3e59020abf0f ("net: bql: add __netdev_tx_sent_queue()")
BQL counters should be updated without flipping/caring about
BQL status, if the current skb has xmit_more set.
Using __netdev_tx_sent_queue() avoids messing with BQL stop
flag, increases performance on GSO workload by keeping
doorbells to the minimum required and also sparing atomic
operations.

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 Restructured Text 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.
