Async write is also > leaner and does not use single, statically allocated memory for > usb_ctrlrequest, which is another potential race when asynchronously > submitting URBs. > > The socket buffer pool for the receive path is now gone. It's existence > didn't make much difference (performance-wise) and the code is better off > without the spinlocks protecting it. > > Largely duplicated code in routines reading and writing MII registers is > now packed in __mii_op(). > > Adding URL for the public pegasus git repository. > > Signed-off-by: Petko Manolov <pet...@nucleusys.com> Three completely unrelated changes combined into one patch, split this up properly into three distinct changes, and resubmit them as a series with a "[PATCH 0/N]" initial posting. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
