i825xx: Move the Intel 82586/82593/82596 based drivers

2011-08-11T03:04:12+00:00

Move the drivers that use the i82586/i82593/i82596 chipsets into
drivers/net/ethernet/i825xx/ and make the necessary Kconfig and
Makefile changes.  There were 4 3Com drivers which were initially
moved into 3com/, which now reside in i825xx since they all used
the i82586 chip.

net: trans_start cleanups

2010-05-10T12:01:31+00:00

Now that core network takes care of trans_start updates, dont do it
in drivers themselves, if possible. Drivers can avoid one cache miss
(on dev->trans_start) in their start_xmit() handler.

Exceptions are NETIF_F_LLTX drivers

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)

net: convert multiple drivers to use netdev_for_each_mc_addr, part5 V2

2010-02-26T10:07:30+00:00

removed some needless checks and also corrected bug in lp486e (dmi was passed
instead of dmi->dmi_addr)

net: use netdev_mc_count and netdev_mc_empty when appropriate

2010-02-12T19:38:58+00:00

This patch replaces dev->mc_count in all drivers (hopefully I didn't miss
anything). Used spatch and did small tweaks and conding style changes when
it was suitable.

drivers/net: request_irq - Remove unnecessary leading & from second arg

netdev: convert bulk of drivers to netdev_tx_t

2009-09-01T08:14:07+00:00

In a couple of cases collapse some extra code like:
   int retval = NETDEV_TX_OK;
   ...
   return retval;
into
   return NETDEV_TX_OK;

net: use NETDEV_TX_OK instead of 0 in ndo_start_xmit() functions

2009-07-06T02:16:04+00:00

This patch is the result of an automatic spatch transformation to convert
all ndo_start_xmit() return values of 0 to NETDEV_TX_OK.

Some occurences are missed by the automatic conversion, those will be
handled in a seperate patch.
