Subject: [PATCH net-next 10/14] net: stmmac: make chain_mode a boolean
Date: Fri, 27 Feb 2026 09:53:54 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1vvuXi-0000000AvnR-3btC@rmk-PC.armlinux.org.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <aaFpZvuIzOLaNM0m@shell.armlinux.org.uk>
priv->chain_mode is only tested for non-zero, so it can be a boolean.
Change its type to boolean, and add a comment describing this member.
Signed-off-by: Russell King (Oracle) <rmk+kernel@armlinux.org.uk>
