netdevice zd1201: Convert directly reference of netdev->priv to netdev_priv()
We have some reasons to kill netdev->priv: 1. netdev->priv is equal to netdev_priv(). 2. netdev_priv() wraps the calculation of netdev->priv's offset, obviously netdev_priv() is more flexible than netdev->priv. But we cann't kill netdev->priv, because so many drivers reference to it directly. OK, becasue Dave S. Miller said, "every direct netdev->priv usage is a bug", and I want to kill netdev->priv later, I decided to convert all the direct reference of netdev->priv first. (Original patch posted by Wang Chen <wangchen@cn.fujitsu.com> w/ above changelog but using dev->ml_priv. That doesn't seem appropriate to me for this driver, so I've revamped it to use netdev_priv() instead. -- JWL) Reviewed-by: Wang Chen <wangchen@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
