MIPS: SB1: Remove support for Pass 1 parts.

2015-07-14T19:47:34Z

Pass 1 parts had a number of significant erratas and were only available in small numbers and under NDA. Full support also required the use of a special toolchain that kept branches properly aligned. These workarounds were never upstreamed and the only toolchain known to have them is Montavista's GCC 3.0-based toolchain which completly obsoleted if not useless these days. So now that automated testing has tripped over the user of the -msb1-pass1-workarounds option, rather than fixing it remove support for pass 1 parts. Probably nobody will notice. I seem to own the last know pass 1 board and I haven't noticed another one in the wild in the past decade, at least. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle

net: ethernet: broadcom: drop owner assignment from platform_drivers

2014-10-20T14:21:05Z

A platform_driver does not need to set an owner, it will be populated by the driver core. Signed-off-by: Wolfram Sang

drivers/net: delete non-required instances of include

2014-01-16T19:53:26Z

None of these files are actually using any __init type directives and hence don't need to include . 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. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ethernet: Fix FSF address in file headers

2013-12-06T17:37:55Z

Several files refer to an old address for the Free Software Foundation in the file header comment. Resolve by replacing the address with the URL so that we do not have to keep updating the header comments anytime the address changes.

net: ethernet: use platform_{get,set}_drvdata()

2013-05-26T04:27:58Z

Use the wrapper functions for getting and setting the driver data using platform_device instead of using dev_{get,set}_drvdata() with &pdev->dev, so we can directly pass a struct platform_device. Also, unnecessary dev_set_drvdata() is removed, because the driver core clears the driver data to NULL after device_release or on probe failure. Signed-off-by: Jingoo Han Signed-off-by: David S.

drivers:net: Remove unnecessary OOM messages after netdev_alloc_skb

2013-03-09T21:09:19Z

Emitting netdev_alloc_skb and netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align OOM messages is unnecessary as there is already a dump_stack after allocation failures. Other trivial changes around these removals: Convert a few comparisons of pointer to 0 to !pointer. Change flow to remove unnecessary label. Remove now unused variable. Hoist assignment from if.

net: phy: remove flags argument from phy_{attach, connect, connect_direct}

2013-01-14T20:11:50Z

The flags argument of the phy_{attach,connect,connect_direct} functions is then used to assign a struct phy_device dev_flags with its value. All callers but the tg3 driver pass the flag 0, which results in the underlying PHY drivers in drivers/net/phy/ not being able to actually use any of the flags they would set in dev_flags. This patch gets rid of the flags argument, and passes phydev->dev_flags to the internal PHY library call phy_attach_direct() such that drivers which actually modify a phy device dev_flags get the value preserved for use by the underlying phy driver.

net/broadcom: remove __dev* attributes

2012-12-03T19:17:07Z

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As result the __dev* markings will be going away. Remove use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata, __devinitconst, and __devexit. Signed-off-by: Bill Pemberton Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

drivers/net: Remove alloc_etherdev error messages

2012-01-31T21:20:48Z

alloc_etherdev has a generic OOM/unable to alloc message. Remove the duplicative messages after alloc_etherdev calls. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
