Hi Maintainers.
What's your opinion on this?
I've played with the patch a little and it builds OK with a few
different configurations and seems to work OK.
One side of the argument is "If its not broken don't fix it". For one
ethernet device it probably takes a little bit more memory.
The other side of the argument is, its more readable so more
maintainable. For multiple devices it probably takes a little less
memory.
Lost in the noise of the rest of the net stack I would say.
You might want to tell him some comments wouldn't go amiss tho ;).
