[This version shouldn't confuse git/patch] A commit few months ago introduced a change:
- a/include/linux/netdevice.h + b/include/linux/netdevice.h static inline void *netdev_priv(const struct net_device *dev) { - return (char *)dev + ((sizeof(struct net_device) - + NETDEV_ALIGN_CONST) - & ~NETDEV_ALIGN_CONST); + return dev->priv; } This change caused some problems for drivers which used netdev_priv(dev) and dev->priv for different purposes. The following patch restores previous behaviour.
