[PATCH] PCI: Remove unused 'node' member from struct pci_driver

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

 



Remove the unused 'node' member. It got replaced by device_driver
chaining more than 20 years ago in commit 4b4a837f2b57 ("PCI: start to
use common fields of struct device_driver more...") of the history.git
tree.

There is only one "user" that makes use of the 'node' member, which is
the brcm80211 driver. However, its "use" is clearly wrong (a list head
cannot be initialized this way) and, obviously, not needed.

If netdev folks instead want to split this off into a separate commit, I
can do that. However, I don't expect any cross-tree conflicts regarding
this change.
