Subject: [PATCH v2 00/10] remove final .ndo_do_ioctl references The .ndo_do_ioctl() netdev operation used to be how one communicates with a network driver from userspace, but since my previous cleanup [1], it is purely internal to the kernel. Removing the cops appletalk/localtalk driver made me revisit the missing pieces from that older series, removing all the unused implementations in wireless drivers as well as the two kernel-internal callers in the ieee802154 and appletalk stacks. One ethernet driver was already merged in the meantime that should have used .ndo_eth_ioctl instead of .ndo_do_ioctl, so fix that as well. With the complete removal, any future drivers making this mistake cause build failures that are easier to spot.

Let me know if I should resend the patches together with the cover letter. Arnd
