Slight mistake here, I think:

-ENOTESTED, I think this makes netpoll_do_completion() call itself,
ie. the local static version here, not the one you are exporting from
net/core/dev.c

Because of the extern you added, I can't see how the compiler
didn't complain loudly about this mismatch.

I had to see this, so I compiled it myself, and it doesn't even
build:

Stephen... come on :-)
