[PATCH] net/macb: move to circ_buf macros and fix initial condition

From: Nicolas Ferre <hidden>
Date: 2012-11-19 15:17:29
Also in: linux-arm-kernel, lkml
Subsystem: atmel macb ethernet driver, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Théo Lebrun, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

Move to circular buffers management macro and correct an error
with circular buffer initial condition.

Without this patch, the macb_tx_ring_avail() function was
not reporting the proper ring availability at startup:
macb macb: eth0: BUG! Tx Ring full when queue awake!
macb macb: eth0: tx_head = 0, tx_tail = 0
And hanginig forever...

I remove the macb_tx_ring_avail() function and use the
proven macros from circ_buf.h. CIRC_CNT() is used in the
"consumer" part of the driver: macb_tx_interrupt() to match
advice from Documentation/circular-buffers.txt.
