Subject: ag71xx: Move timestamp struct member outside of struct.
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=810659a22c11ea0d2d94f3e09ddf7eb2d2bb1f1e;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fzorun.git

ag71xx: Move timestamp struct member outside of struct.

With this change, the timestamp variable is only used in ag71xx_check_dma_stuck. Small tx speedup.

Based on a Qualcomm commit. ag->timestamp = jiffies was not replaced with netif_trans_update(dev) because of this quote:

It should be noted that after this series several instances
of netif_trans_update() are useless (if they occur in
.ndo_start_xmit and driver doesn't set LLTX flag -- stack already
did an update).
