[PATCH RFC 1/2] ixp4xx_eth: avoid calling dma_pool_create() with NULL dev

From: Xi Wang <xi.wang@gmail.com>
Date: 2012-11-18 06:25:22
Subsystem: arm/intel ixp4xx arm architecture, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Linus Walleij, Imre Kaloz, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

Use &port->netdev->dev instead of NULL since dma_pool_create() doesn't
allow NULL dev.
