From 3f9a79b5bb0aca128062e33426662b6d9c1b423e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julia Lawall Date: Mon, 30 Dec 2013 19:15:01 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mwl8k: use ether_addr_equal_64bits Ether_addr_equal_64bits is more efficient than ether_addr_equal, and can be used when each argument is an array within a structure that contains at least two bytes of data beyond the array. The structures involved are: ieee80211_hdr defined in include/linux/ieee80211.h and mwl8k_priv defined in drivers/net/wireless/mwl8k.c This was done using Coccinelle (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/).
