This is the last shoot of this series.
After I removing all directly reference of netdev-&gt;priv, I am killing
"priv" of "struct net_device" and fixing relative comments/docs.

Anyone will not be allowed to reference netdev-&gt;priv directly.
If you want to reference the memory of private data, use netdev_priv()
instead.
If the private data is not allocted when alloc_netdev(), use
netdev-&gt;ml_priv to point that memory after you creating that private
data.

This patch is to kill directly reference of netdev-&gt;priv too.
Because the private data should be allocated in DMA area, alloc_etherdev()
can't satisfy this needs.
Use netdev-&gt;ml_priv to point to lance_private.

<title>drivers/net: Kill now superfluous -&gt;last_rx stores.</title>

<content type='text'>
The generic packet receive code takes care of setting
netdev-&gt;last_rx when necessary, for the sake of the
bonding ARP monitor.

Drivers need not do it any more.

Some cases had to be skipped over because the drivers
were making use of the -&gt;last_rx value themselves.

This converts pretty much everything to print_mac. There were
a few things that had conflicts which I have just dropped for
now, no harm done.

I've built an allyesconfig with this and looked at the files
that weren't built very carefully, but it's a huge patch.

It's been a useless no-op for long enough in 2.6 so I figured it's time to
remove it.  The number of people that could object because they're
maintaining unified 2.4 and 2.6 drivers is probably rather small.
