tools: ynl: move python code to separate sub-directory

2025-01-09T20:53:27Z

Move python code to a separate directory so it can be packaged as a python module. Updates existing references in selftests and docs. Also rename ynl-gen-[c|rst] to ynl_gen_[c|rst], avoid dashes as these prevent easy imports for entrypoints.

doc: net: napi: Update documentation for napi_schedule_irqoff

2024-10-03T10:07:29Z

Since commit 8380c81d5c4f ("net: Treat __napi_schedule_irqoff() as __napi_schedule() on PREEMPT_RT"), napi_schedule_irqoff will do the right thing if IRQs are threaded. Therefore, there is no need to use IRQF_NO_THREAD.
