Subject: net: remove iflink field from struct net_device
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7a66bbc96ce9ad8261fa5f7f6ae65370eb6866ee;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

net: remove iflink field from struct net_device

Now that all users of iflink have the ndo_get_iflink handler available, it's
possible to remove this field.

By default, dev_get_iflink() returns the ifindex of the interface.
