None of these files are actually using any __init type directives
and hence don't need to include &lt;linux/init.h&gt;.   Most are just a
left over from __devinit and __cpuinit removal, or simply due to
code getting copied from one driver to the next.

This covers everything under drivers/net except for wireless, which
has been submitted separately.

The driver core clears the driver data to NULL after device_release
or on probe failure. Thus, it is not needed to manually clear the
device driver data to NULL.

<title>fddi/skfp: Remove extern from function prototypes</title>

There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern
in the kernel sources.  Standardize on not using extern for
function prototypes.

Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern.
extern is assumed by the compiler.  Its use is as unnecessary as
using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

<title>drivers:net: Convert dma_alloc_coherent(...__GFP_ZERO) to dma_zalloc_coherent</title>

__GFP_ZERO is an uncommon flag and perhaps is better
not used.  static inline dma_zalloc_coherent exists
so convert the uses of dma_alloc_coherent with __GFP_ZERO
to the more common kernel style with zalloc.

Remove memset from the static inline dma_zalloc_coherent
and add just one use of __GFP_ZERO instead.

Trivially reduces the size of the existing uses of
dma_zalloc_coherent.

Realign arguments as appropriate.

Reduce the number of calls required to alloc
a zeroed block of memory.

Trivially reduces overall object size.

Other changes around these removals
o Neaten call argument alignment
o Remove an unnecessary OOM message after dma_alloc_coherent failure
o Remove unnecessary gfp_t stack variable
