Resolved the iwlwifi conflict with mainline using 3-way diff posted
by John Linville and Stephen Rothwell.  In 'net' we added a bug
fix to make iwlwifi report a more accurate skb->truesize but this
conflicted with RX path changes that happened meanwhile in net-next.

In e1000e a conflict arose in the validation code for settings of
adapter->itr.  'net-next' had more sophisticated logic so that
logic was used.

dl2k: Clean up rio_ioctl

2012-04-26T09:36:39+00:00

The dl2k driver's rio_ioctl call has a few issues:
- No permissions checking
- Implements SIOCGMIIREG and SIOCGMIIREG using the SIOCDEVPRIVATE numbers
- Has a few ioctls that may have been used for debugging at one point
  but have no place in the kernel proper.

This patch removes all but the MII ioctls, renumbers them to use the
standard ones, and adds the proper permission check for SIOCSMIIREG.

We can also get rid of the dl2k-specific struct mii_data in favor of
the generic struct mii_ioctl_data.

Since we have the phyid on hand, we can add the SIOCGMIIPHY ioctl too.

Most of the MII code for the driver could probably be converted to use
the generic MII library but I don't have a device to test the results.

dl2k: stop using net_device.{base_addr, irq} and convert to __iomem.

2012-04-07T09:47:17+00:00

The eeprom registers always use the same PCI bar whereas the general
registers may either use the same mapping as the eeprom registers or
a different one. It is thus possible to simplify parse_eeprom().

ethernet: unify return value of .ndo_set_mac_address if address is invalid

2012-02-23T22:03:20+00:00

Unify return value of .ndo_set_mac_address if the given address
isn't valid. Return -EADDRNOTAVAIL as eth_mac_addr() already does
if is_valid_ether_addr() fails.

module_param: make bool parameters really bool (net & drivers/net)

2011-12-20T03:27:29+00:00

module_param(bool) used to counter-intuitively take an int.  In
fddd5201 (mid-2009) we allowed bool or int/unsigned int using a messy
trick.

It's time to remove the int/unsigned int option.  For this version
it'll simply give a warning, but it'll break next kernel version.

(Thanks to Joe Perches for suggesting coccinelle for 0/1 -> true/false).

sweep the floors and convert some .get_drvinfo routines to strlcpy

2011-11-08T20:11:57+00:00

Per the mention made by Ben Hutchings that strlcpy is now the preferred
string copy routine for a .get_drvinfo routine, do a bit of floor
sweeping and convert some of the as-yet unconverted ethernet drivers to
it.
