[PATCH net-next v2 6/7] net: ipa: get rid of status size constraint

From: Alex Elder <hidden>
Date: 2021-02-05 22:04:24
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: networking drivers, qcom ipa driver, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Alex Elder, Linus Torvalds

There is a build-time check that the packet status structure is a
multiple of 4 bytes in size.  It's not clear where that constraint
comes from, but the structure defines what hardware provides so its
definition won't change.  Get rid of the check; it adds no value.
