Subject: s390/qeth: remove static cmd buffer infrastructure
X-Git-Url: http://git.cdn.openwrt.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c3b2218d3170178b2e5539bca3623f9519386d04;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

s390/qeth: remove static cmd buffer infrastructure

Now that all cmds are dynamically allocated, the code for static cmd
buffers can go away entirely. Resulting in a nice reduction of
code/data size & complexity, while removing the risk that
qeth_clear_cmd_buffers() releases cmds that are still in-flight.
