If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Anton Blanchard commit cbd5228199d8be45d895d9d0cc2b8ce53835fc21 upstream. Hidden away in the last 8 bytes of the buffer_list page is a solitary statistic. It needs to be byte swapped or else ethtool -S will produce numbers that terrify the user. Since we do this in multiple places, create a helper function with a comment explaining what is going on. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard Signed-off-by: David S.
