Subject: [net-next 08/17] e1000: remove dead e1000_init_eeprom_params calls
Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2015 16:54:27 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1442966076-14359-9-git-send-email-jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1442966076-14359-1-git-send-email-jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com>

From: Francois Romieu <romieu@fr.zoreil.com>

The device probe method e1000_probe calls e1000_init_eeprom_params
itself so there's no reason to call it again from e1000_do_write_eeprom
or e1000_do_read_eeprom.

The sentence above assumes that e1000_init_eeprom_params is effective.
e1000_init_eeprom_params depends mostly on hw->mac_type and e1000_probe
bails out early if it can't set mac_type (see e1000_init_hw_struct, then
e1000_set_mac_type), qed.

Btw, if effective, the removed paths would had been deadlock prone when
e1000_eeprom_spi was set:
-> e1000_write_eeprom (takes e1000_eeprom_lock)
   -> e1000_do_write_eeprom
      -> e1000_init_eeprom_params
         -> e1000_read_eeprom (takes e1000_eeprom_lock)

(same narrative with e1000_read_eeprom -> e1000_do_read_eeprom etc.)

As a final note, the candidate deadlock above can't happen in e1000_probe
due to the way eeprom->word_size is set / tested.
