i825xx/ether1.c: remove __dev* attributes

2012-12-03T19:16:12Z

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 Cc: Russell King Cc: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

net/ethernet: remove useless is_valid_ether_addr from drivers ndo_open

2012-11-20T00:01:18Z

If ndo_validate_addr is set to the generic eth_validate_addr function there is no point in calling is_valid_ether_addr from driver ndo_open if ndo_open is not used elsewhere in the driver. With this change is_valid_ether_addr will be called from the generic eth_validate_addr function. So there should be no change in the actual behavior.

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

2011-08-11T03:04:12Z

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.
