With centralized MTU checking, there's nothing productive done by
eth_change_mtu that isn't already done in dev_set_mtu, so mark it as
deprecated and remove all usage of it in the kernel. All callers have been
audited for calls to alloc_etherdev* or ether_setup directly, which means
they all have a valid dev->min_mtu and dev->max_mtu. Now eth_change_mtu
prints out a netdev_warn about being deprecated, for the benefit of
out-of-tree drivers that might be utilizing it.
Of note, dvb_net.c actually had dev->mtu = 4096, while using
eth_change_mtu, meaning that if you ever tried changing it's mtu, you
couldn't set it above 1500 anymore. It's now getting dev->max_mtu also set
to 4096 to remedy that.

This patch proposes to remove the IRQF_DISABLED flag from
code in drivers/net/ethernet/natsemi/
It's a NOOP since 2.6.35 and it will be removed one day.

I believe these error messages are already logged
on allocation failure by warn_alloc_failed and so
get a dump_stack on OOM.
Remove the unnecessary additional error logging.
Around these deletions:
o Alignment neatening.
o Remove unnecessary casts of dma_alloc_coherent.
o Hoist assigns from ifs.

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As result the __dev*
markings will be going away.
Remove use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata, __devinitconst,
and __devexit.

The function sonic_probe1() return 0 for success and negative value
for most of its internal tests failures. There is one exception
that is error case going to out:. For this error case, the
function abort its success execution path, but returns non negative
value, making it difficult for a caller function to notice the error.
This patch fixes the error case that do not return negative value.
This was found by Coccinelle, but the code change was made by hand.
This patch is not robot generated.
A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is
as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
// <smpl>
(
if@p1 (\(ret < 0\|ret != 0\))
{ ... return ret; }
|
ret@p1 = 0
)
... when != ret = e1
when != &ret
*if(...)
{
... when != ret = e2
when forall
return ret;
}
