[PATCH 02/13] 802: Convert compare_ether_addr to ether_addr_equal

From: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com>
Date: 2012-05-09 04:58:14
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

Use the new bool function ether_addr_equal to add
some clarity and reduce the likelihood for misuse
of compare_ether_addr for sorting.

Done via cocci script:

$ cat compare_ether_addr.cocci

expression a,b;

-	!compare_ether_addr(a, b)
