From b74ca3a896b9ab5f952bc440154758e708c48884 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wang Chen Date: Mon, 8 Dec 2008 01:14:16 -0800 Subject: netdevice: Kill netdev->priv This is the last shoot of this series. After I removing all directly reference of netdev->priv, I am killing "priv" of "struct net_device" and fixing relative comments/docs. Anyone will not be allowed to reference netdev->priv directly. If you want to reference the memory of private data, use netdev_priv() instead. If the private data is not allocted when alloc_netdev(), use netdev->ml_priv to point that memory after you creating that private data. Signed-off-by: Wang Chen Signed-off-by: David S.
