drivers/net: avoid some skb->ip_summed initializations

2010-09-03T02:06:22+00:00

fresh skbs have ip_summed set to CHECKSUM_NONE (0)

We can avoid setting again skb->ip_summed to CHECKSUM_NONE in drivers.

Introduce skb_checksum_none_assert() helper so that we keep this
assertion documented in driver sources.

Change most occurrences of :

skb->ip_summed = CHECKSUM_NONE;

by :

skb_checksum_none_assert(skb);

Use the return value provided by register_netdev on error instead of
hard setting it to -ENOMEM.

2010-08-08T07:20:06+00:00

Commit id 1636f8ac2b08410df4766449f7c86b912443cd99 (sparc/of: Move
of_device fields into struct pdev_archdata) missed fixing up the
n2_core.c and greth.c drivers.  This patch makes the required changes.

of/device: Replace struct of_device with struct platform_device

2010-08-06T15:25:50+00:00

of_device is just an alias for platform_device, so remove it entirely.  Also
replace to_of_device() with to_platform_device() and update comment blocks.

This patch was initially generated from the following semantic patch, and then
edited by hand to pick up the bits that coccinelle didn't catch.

greth: Remove unnecessary memset of napi member in netdev private data

2010-06-07T08:08:11+00:00

The memory for the private data is allocated using kzalloc in
alloc_etherdev (or alloc_netdev_mq respectively) so there is no need to
set the napi member to 0 explicitely.

Merge remote branch 'origin' into secretlab/next-devicetree

2010-05-22T06:36:56+00:00

Merging in current state of Linus' tree to deal with merge conflicts and
build failures in vio.c after merge.

Conflicts:
	drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-cpm.c
	drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-mpc.c

Also fixed up one line in arch/powerpc/kernel/vio.c to use the
correct node pointer.

of: Always use 'struct device.of_node' to get device node pointer.

2010-05-18T22:10:44+00:00

The following structure elements duplicate the information in
'struct device.of_node' and so are being eliminated.  This patch
makes all readers of these elements use device.of_node instead.

(struct of_device *)->node
(struct dev_archdata *)->prom_node (sparc)
(struct dev_archdata *)->of_node (powerpc & microblaze)

net: convert multicast list to list_head

2010-04-03T21:22:15+00:00

Converts the list and the core manipulating with it to be the same as uc_list.

+uses two functions for adding/removing mc address (normal and "global"
 variant) instead of a function parameter.
+removes dev_mcast.c completely.
+exposes netdev_hw_addr_list_* macros along with __hw_addr_* functions for
 manipulation with lists on a sandbox (used in bonding and 80211 drivers)
