Merge branch 'kill_trans_start'
Florian Westphal says:
====================
net: remove trans_start from struct net_device
We currently have two instances for trans_start, once in
net_device and once in netdev_queue.
This series removes trans_start from net_device.
Updates to dev->trans_start are replaced with updates to netdev queue 0.
This series is compile-tested only.
Replacement is done in 3 steps:
1. Replace read-accesses:
x = dev->trans_start
gets replaced by
x = dev_trans_start(dev)
2. Replace write accesses:
dev->trans_start = jiffies;
gets replaced with new helper:
netif_trans_update(dev);
3. This helper is then changed to set
netdev_get_tx_queue(dev, 0)->trans_start
instead of dev->trans_start.
After this dev->trans_start can be removed.
It should be noted that after this series several instances
of netif_trans_update() are useless (if they occur in
.ndo_start_xmit and driver doesn't set LLTX flag -- stack already
did an update).
Comments welcome.
