Subject: [PATCH next] staging-winbond: Kill directly reference of netdev->priv
Date: Mon, 08 Dec 2008 13:33:22 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <493CB1A2.7080005@cn.fujitsu.com> (raw)

This driver is not yet finished.
At this time, we don't know how netdev be created and how
private data be allocated.
So, simply use netdev_priv() now and leave some temp comment.

Compile test only.
