After m68k's task_thread_info() doesn't refer to current,
it's possible to remove sched.h from interrupt.h and not break m68k!
Many thanks to Heiko Carstens for allowing this.

<title>net: use NETDEV_TX_OK instead of 0 in ndo_start_xmit() functions</title>

<id>6ed106549d17474ca17a16057f4c0ed4eba5a7ca</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch is the result of an automatic spatch transformation to convert
all ndo_start_xmit() return values of 0 to NETDEV_TX_OK.

Some occurences are missed by the automatic conversion, those will be
handled in a seperate patch.

The generic packet receive code takes care of setting
netdev-&gt;last_rx when necessary, for the sake of the
bonding ARP monitor.

Drivers need not do it any more.

Some cases had to be skipped over because the drivers
were making use of the -&gt;last_rx value themselves.

drivers/net/sb1000.c has lots of inlined static functions.

Mst of them are used at initialization, wait for some
hardware register to change (wait using yield, sleep etc),
or do slow port-based I/O. Inlining thse "for speed" makes no sense.

This patch removes "inline" from biggest static function
(regardless of number of callsites - gcc nowadays auto-inlines
statics with one callsite).

Size difference for 32bit x86:

text   data    bss    dec    hex filename
6299    129      0   6428   191c linux-2.6-ALLYES/drivers/net/sb1000.o

We now have struct net_device_stats embedded in struct net_device,
and the default -&gt;get_stats() hook does the obvious thing for us.

Run through drivers/net/* and remove the driver-local storage of
statistics, and driver-local -&gt;get_stats() hook where applicable.

This was just the low-hanging fruit in drivers/net; plenty more drivers
remain to be updated.

It's been a useless no-op for long enough in 2.6 so I figured it's time to
remove it.  The number of people that could object because they're
maintaining unified 2.4 and 2.6 drivers is probably rather small.

For the common, open coded 'skb-&gt;mac.raw = skb-&gt;data' operation, so that we can
later turn skb-&gt;mac.raw into a offset, reducing the size of struct sk_buff in
64bit land while possibly keeping it as a pointer on 32bit.

This one touches just the most simple case, next will handle the slightly more
"complex" cases.
