This patch removes two useful initialisation in the
stmmac_rx and stmmac_tx function.
In the former, count var was already reset and in the
stmmac_tx we only need to increment the dirty pointer
w/o setting the entry var.

You really need to post your patches properly.

In particular, you need to indicate, either in an initial "[PATCH 0/N]"
posting, or in the subject lines of that patch, exactly what tree
you are targetting.

And if this is meant for net-next, I told you specifically that net-next
is not open right now and you need to submit this later when I make
the announcement here that it is open.

We are in the middle of the merge window, and therefore you should only
be submitting bug fixes against the 'net' tree.

It is extremely irritating that, when I go out of my way to make
announcements here on this list, multiple times, about what kind of
patches are appropriate and what kinds are not, and yet people still
do not listen and they still submit any old crap they feel like
submitting.

People need to stop this, now.

Pay attention to the development state, and follow the rules,
otherwise you'll royally piss me off and I'll ignore your patches
completely.

Thanks.

Previous ones were for net-next and in fact in the subject I indeed used:

  [net-next X/N] stmmac: ....

After your comment I re-sent them for net.git (pls see my previous email
where I clarified that).

I have always posted all my patches for net-next adding its suffix in
the subject.

For all the patches for net.git I've never added the suffix but I'll do
that.

I agree with you that the suffix should be added and I had understood
(and always used and fixed in my subjectprefix) that these were the
format of the patches in this mailing list

[PATCH] ...        =>>> for net.git
[PATCH net-next]   =>>> for net-next.git

So I'll use starting from now:

[PATCH (net.git)]    =>>> for net.git
[PATCH (net-next)]   =>>> for net-next.git
