net: s6gmac: remove driver

2014-12-22T21:29:03Z

The s6000 Xtensa support has been removed from the kernel in 4006e565e1500db4. There are no other chips using this driver. While the Mentor/Alcatel PE-MCXMAC IP core is also used in other designs (Freescale Gianfar/UCC, QLogic NetXen, Solarflare, Agere ET-1310, Netlogic XLR/XLS), none of these use this driver as it heavily depends on the s6000 DMA engine. In fact, there is no code sharing across any of the aforementioned devices. Signed-off-by: Daniel Glöckner Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: ethernet: drop owner assignment from platform_drivers

2014-10-20T14:21:02Z

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

net: ethernet: remove unnecessary platform_set_drvdata()

2013-05-28T05:34:51Z

The driver core clears the driver data to NULL after device_release or on probe failure, since commit 0998d0631001288a5974afc0b2a5f568bcdecb4d (device-core: Ensure drvdata = NULL when no driver is bound). Thus, it is not needed to manually clear the device driver data to NULL.

s6gmac: fix error return code in s6gmac_probe()

2013-03-22T14:23:42Z

Fix to return a negative error code from the error handling case instead of 0, as returned elsewhere in this function. Signed-off-by: Wei Yongjun Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: s6gmac: Use module_platform_driver()

2013-03-20T17:25:36Z

module_platform_driver macro removes some boilerplate and simplifies the code. Signed-off-by: Sachin Kamat Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

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/ethernet: remove __dev* attributes

2012-12-03T19:16:56Z

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
