Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/6] Documentation fixes
Date: Fri, 6 Apr 2012 01:37:47 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1333672667.2652.22.camel@bwh-desktop.uk.solarflarecom.com> (raw)

These changes update Documentation/networking/driver.txt and
Documentation/networking/netdevices.txt to reflect the last 5 or so
years of API changes (though no new features are documented).

They also remove documentation of a wrinkle in ethtool_ops that I
recently fixed.

These could safely be applied to either net or net-next; they can't
break anything but another 3 months of dust isn't going to make much
difference.

Ben.

Not speaking for my employer; that's the marketing department's job.
They asked us to note that Solarflare product names are trademarked.
