[PATCH net-next] net: ethernet: mtk_wed: No need to clear memory after a dma_alloc_coherent() call
Posted by Christophe JAILLET 1 year, 7 months ago
dma_alloc_coherent() already clears the allocated memory, there is no need
to explicitly call memset().

Moreover, it is likely that the size in the memset() is incorrect and
should be "size * sizeof(*ring->desc)".
