Subject: [PATCH] net: rtl8169: remove unnecessary cache maintenance
Date: Sun,  4 Jan 2015 22:09:05 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1420405745-4408-1-git-send-email-dev@lynxeye.de> (raw)

The buffer descriptors are allocated from coherent memory, so there
is no cache maintenance needed. Only tell the compiler that the descriptors
can be modified by the hardware.
