The function and some variable names have > been renamed to be more descriptive. > > Not tested on the only hardware that currently calls the related functions, > stmmac, because I don't have access to any. Has been compile tested and > the translations have been tested on a locally modified version of e1000e. > > Signed-off-by: Bruce Allan <bruce.w.allan@...el.com> Applied. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
