greth_mdio_reset() does nothing useful and this function is optional for
the MDIO bus code, so let's just remove it.

None of these files are actually using any __init type directives
and hence don't need to include &lt;linux/init.h&gt;.   Most are just a
left over from __devinit and __cpuinit removal, or simply due to
code getting copied from one driver to the next.

This covers everything under drivers/net except for wireless, which
has been submitted separately.

In case the greth driver is bound to anything but the Generic PHY
driver or the PHY has a special read_status callback implemented,
unexpected things will happen. Make sure we that we use
phy_read_status() which does the proper abstraction of calling the
driver specific read_status() callback for a given PHY.

<title>drivers:net: Convert dma_alloc_coherent(...__GFP_ZERO) to dma_zalloc_coherent</title>

__GFP_ZERO is an uncommon flag and perhaps is better
not used.  static inline dma_zalloc_coherent exists
so convert the uses of dma_alloc_coherent with __GFP_ZERO
to the more common kernel style with zalloc.

Remove memset from the static inline dma_zalloc_coherent
and add just one use of __GFP_ZERO instead.

Trivially reduces the size of the existing uses of
dma_zalloc_coherent.

Realign arguments as appropriate.

Use the wrapper functions for getting and setting the driver data using
platform_device instead of using dev_{get,set}_drvdata() with &amp;pdev-&gt;dev,
so we can directly pass a struct platform_device.

Also, unnecessary dev_set_drvdata() is removed, because the driver core
clears the driver data to NULL after device_release or on probe failure.

Reduce the number of calls required to alloc
a zeroed block of memory.

Trivially reduces overall object size.

Other changes around these removals
o Neaten call argument alignment
o Remove an unnecessary OOM message after dma_alloc_coherent failure
o Remove unnecessary gfp_t stack variable

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.

<title>net: phy: remove flags argument from phy_{attach, connect, connect_direct}</title>

<content type='text'>
The flags argument of the phy_{attach,connect,connect_direct} functions
is then used to assign a struct phy_device dev_flags with its value.
All callers but the tg3 driver pass the flag 0, which results in the
underlying PHY drivers in drivers/net/phy/ not being able to actually
use any of the flags they would set in dev_flags. This patch gets rid of
the flags argument, and passes phydev-&gt;dev_flags to the internal PHY
library call phy_attach_direct() such that drivers which actually modify
a phy device dev_flags get the value preserved for use by the underlying
phy driver.
