David,
Please help to review and confirm this patch.
Thanks,

It's not in patchwork, therefore it's not in my queue.
It is also not my responsibility to review all patches, that's
a joint responsibility of everyone on this mailing list.
So asking me specifically to review a patch is really not
generally inappropriate.
Thanks.
David,
Sorry I don't know who owns this driver, the SOB of other patches
to netxen may mislead me you could ACK it or not, so it is definitely
not the original meaning that ask you specifically to review one patch.
just ask for help point to someone could review it.
Thanks,
Ethan

Ethan, I can't download this patch as I don’t see it in netdev patchwork. Just looking at the diff I think there is style issue with macro definition of NETXEN_NIC_STAT and NETXEN_NETDEV_STAT.
Enclose macro definition in parentheses as they are containing complex values.
Send this patch targeted for net instead of net-next being a bug fix. Please also run checkpatch.pl to correct any style warning/errors in the patch.
Thanks!!

It's not an error as checkpatch.pl indicates. As the definition of
netxen_nic_stats shows,
struct netxen_nic_stats {
char stat_string[ETH_GSTRING_LEN];
+ int type;
int sizeof_stat;
int stat_offset;
};
This macros consists of multiple elements, which shouldn't be enclosed
in parentheses.

Agree, I am sure it is error of checkpatch.pl.
