While debugging another issue today, I found out that my TX queue is
reported as stopped for 4294907392 ms (49.7 days), on a machine that
had been up for four minutes.
bnxt_en 0002:01:00.0 eth0: NETDEV WATCHDOG: CPU: 28: transmit queue 23 timed out 4294907392 ms
4294907392 is not an elapsed time. It is the value of jiffies at that
moment: INITIAL_JIFFIES is 4294667296, which leaves jiffies 59 seconds
short of wrapping.
dev_activate() runs transition_one_qdisc() over every TX queue, which
resets trans_start to 0, and then stamps only queue 0 through
netif_trans_update().
Stamp jiffies instead. A queue stopped across dev_activate() now gets a
full watchdog_timeo of grace, and is still reported if it is stopped
that long.
Fixes: 9b36627ace ("net: remove dev->trans_start")
