[PATCH 4.4 16/79] net: hamradio: use eth_broadcast_addr

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

 



4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Stefan Agner <stefan@xxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 4e8439aa34802deab11cee68b0ecb18f887fb153 ]

The array bpq_eth_addr is only used to get the size of an
address, whereas the bcast_addr is used to set the broadcast
address. This leads to a warning when using clang:
drivers/net/hamradio/bpqether.c:94:13: warning: variable 'bpq_eth_addr' is not
      needed and will not be emitted [-Wunneeded-internal-declaration]
static char bpq_eth_addr[6];
            ^

Remove both variables and use the common eth_broadcast_addr
to set the broadcast address.
