lib/test_blackhole_dev.c sets a variable that is never read, causing
this following building warning:

	lib/test_blackhole_dev.c:32:17: warning: variable 'ethh' set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]

Remove the variable struct ethhdr *ethh, which is unused.

Since Jiri suggested a title fix I reckon we should be a bit more
specific, still. Imagine this title ending up in a quote or a Fixes
tag, could be many things.. How about:

  net: blackhole_dev: fix build warning for ethh set but not used

?

Sure, let me resend it.

I suppose I should recent to `net` given it is a building warning,
right?

Not necessarily, net-next is good enough for W=1 warnings in general.
Compiler warnings only show up if the file in question or some header
it includes was modified. The linker warnings are a bit special.
If you touch any file in any module you'll see all linker warnings.

s/buil/build/ in the subject.

Also, indicate which tree are you targetting. In this case, should be:
[patch net-next] xxx

The patch itself looks good. Feel free to attach
Reviewed-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@nvidia.com>
with the v2 with fixed subject. Thanks!
