[PATCH] staging:r8188eu: Remove rx_handler_data unnecessary read

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Rx handler (assigned with netdev_rx_handler_register,
called from __netif_receive_skb()) uses value of dev->rx_handler_data.
The driver has no rx handler and does not need it, so remove rx_handler_data read.
