Date: Fri, 18 Nov 2011 20:20:05 +0800 From: Herbert Xu <herbert@...dor.apana.org.au> To: David Miller <davem@...emloft.net>, eric.dumazet@...il.com, evonlanthen@...il.com, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, netdev@...r.kernel.org, timo.teras@....fi Subject: [PATCH 4/6] net: Remove LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE net: Remove LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE The macro LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE was ill-conceived. It applies the alignment to the sum of needed_headroom and needed_tailroom. As the amount that is then reserved for head room is needed_headroom with alignment, this means that the tail room left may be too small. Now that all uses of LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE have been removed, this patch finally removes the macro itself.
