Your suggested patch removes lines in the function headers which can be (if not already) in documentation. Specifically, the function header comments for Intel drivers was written in such a way that it can be parsed out by the kernel documentation scripts to create an API document. I would agree that "@rx_ring: pointer to receive ring structure" is probably not the best documentation, but rather than removing it, I would suggest improving it.

Jeff, he's removing it because the function no longer takes that argument any more. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

I would suggest reading the patch more carefully - there is no rx_ring argument. The documentation in the header is stale. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
