[PATCH 6/8] smc9194: Remove unnecessary memset of netdev private data

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

 



The memory for the private data is allocated using kzalloc in
alloc_etherdev (or alloc_netdev_mq respectively) so there is no need to
set it to 0 again.
