<content type='text'>
Because platform_get_irq() could fail and return error irq.
Therefore, it might be better to check it if order to avoid the use of
error irq.

up. To maintain netdev-&gt;dev_addr in this tree we need to make all

Up to now ks8851_remove_common() returns zero unconditionally. Make it
return void instead which makes it easier to see in the callers that
there is no error to handle.

Also the return value of platform and spi remove callbacks is ignored
anyway.

<title>ethernet: constify references to netdev-&gt;dev_addr in drivers</title>

<id>urn:sha1:766607570becbd26cab6d66a544dd8d0d964df5a</id>
<content type='text'>
This big patch sprinkles const on local variables and
function arguments which may refer to netdev-&gt;dev_addr.

Commit 406f42fa0d3c ("net-next: When a bond have a massive amount
of VLANs...") introduced a rbtree for faster Ethernet address look
up. To maintain netdev-&gt;dev_addr in this tree we need to make all
the writes to it got through appropriate helpers.

Some of the changes here are not strictly required - const
is sometimes cast off but pointer is not used for writing.
It seems like it's still better to add the const in case
the code changes later or relevant -W flags get enabled
for the build.

No functional changes.

and the drivers which set it to ETH_ALEN: s2io, mlx4, vxge.

An object file cannot be built for both loadable module and built-in
use at the same time:

arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: drivers/net/ethernet/micrel/ks8851_common.o: in function `ks8851_probe_common':
ks8851_common.c:(.text+0xf80): undefined reference to `__this_module'

Change the ks8851_common code to be a standalone module instead,
and use Makefile logic to ensure this is built-in if at least one
of its two users is.

<title>dev_ioctl: split out ndo_eth_ioctl</title>

Most users of ndo_do_ioctl are ethernet drivers that implement
the MII commands SIOCGMIIPHY/SIOCGMIIREG/SIOCSMIIREG, or hardware
timestamping with SIOCSHWTSTAMP/SIOCGHWTSTAMP.

Separate these from the few drivers that use ndo_do_ioctl to
implement SIOCBOND, SIOCBR and SIOCWANDEV commands.

This is a purely cosmetic change intended to help readers find
their way through the implementation.

Some micrel devices share the same PHY register defines. This patch
moves them to one common header so other drivers can reuse them.
And reuse generic MII_* defines where possible.
