Linus suggested during one of past maintainer summits (in context of a DMA_BUF discussion) that symbol namespaces can be used to prevent unwelcome but in-tree code from using all exported functions. Create a namespace for netdev. Export netdev_rx_queue_restart(), drivers may want to use it since it gives them a simple and safe way to restart a queue to apply config changes. But it's both too low level and too actively developed to be used outside netdev.

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.
