From f90e29f32b4ea152e2452137a10ee686322803f1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julia Lawall Date: Mon, 30 Dec 2013 19:14:58 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] ath5k: 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_mgmt defined in include/linux/ieee80211.h and ath_common defined in drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath.h This was done using Coccinelle (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/).
