staging: et131x: Fix errors caused by phydev->addr accesses before initialisation

2014-08-17T14:07:55+00:00

Fix two reported bugs, caused by et131x_adapter->phydev->addr being accessed
before it is initialised, by:

- letting et131x_mii_write() take a phydev address, instead of using the one
  stored in adapter by default. This is so et131x_mdio_write() can use it's own
  addr value.
- removing implementation of et131x_mdio_reset(), as it's not needed.
- moving a call to et131x_disable_phy_coma() in et131x_pci_setup(), which uses
  phydev->addr, until after the mdiobus has been registered.

staging: et131x: Remove useless return variables

2014-05-23T11:43:47+00:00

This patch remove variables that are initialized with a constant,
are never updated, and are only used as parameter of return.
Return the constant instead of using a variable.

Verified by compilation only.

The coccinelle script that find and fixes this issue is:
// 
@@
type T;
constant C;
identifier ret;
@@
- T ret = C;
... when != ret
- return ret;
+ return C;

net: get rid of SET_ETHTOOL_OPS

Dave Miller mentioned he'd like to see SET_ETHTOOL_OPS gone.
This does that.

Mostly done via coccinelle script:
@@
struct ethtool_ops *ops;
struct net_device *dev;
@@
-       SET_ETHTOOL_OPS(dev, ops);
+       dev->ethtool_ops = ops;

Compile tested only, but I'd seriously wonder if this broke anything.
