From bb7bba3d56963be59bc6764c8021290ed55205ad Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Lezcano Date: Tue, 28 Oct 2008 22:08:19 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] veth: Remove useless veth field The veth private structure contains a netdev pointer refering to its peer. This field is never used and it is pointless because if we can access, the veth_priv, that means we already have the netdev which is stored in veth_priv->dev.
