Merge branch 'Networking-driver-debugfs-cleanups'
Greg Kroah-Hartman says: ==================== Networking driver debugfs cleanups There is no need to test the result of any debugfs call anymore. The debugfs core warns the user if something fails, and the return value of a debugfs call can always be fed back into another debugfs call with no problems. Also, debugfs is for debugging, so if there are problems with debugfs (i.e. the system is out of memory) the rest of the kernel should not change behavior, so testing for debugfs calls is pointless and not the goal of debugfs at all. This series cleans up a lot of networking drivers and some wimax code that was calling debugfs and trying to do something with the return value that it didn't need to. Removing this logic makes the code smaller, easier to understand, and use less run-time memory in some cases, all good things. The series is against net-next, and have no dependancies between any of them if they want to go through any random tree/order. Or, if wanted, I can take them through my driver-core tree where other debugfs cleanups are being slowly fed during major merge windows. v3: fix build warning in i2400m, I thought I had caught them all :( add acks from some reviewers v2: fix up build warnings, it's as if I never even built these. Ugh, so sorry for wasting people's time with the v1 series. I need to stop relying on 0-day as it isn't working well anymore :( ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
