net: usb: remove unnecessary get_drvinfo code and driver versions

2026-01-31T01:44:18+00:00

Many USB network drivers define get_drvinfo functions which add no value over usbnet_get_drvinfo, only setting the driver name and version. usbnet_get_drvinfo automatically sets the driver name, and separate driver versions are now frowned upon in the kernel. Remove all driver versions and replace these get_drvinfo functions with references to usbnet_get_drvinfo where possible. Where that is not possible, remove unnecessary code to set the driver name. Also remove two unnecessary initializations from aqc111_get_drvinfo, an inaccurate comment in pegasus.c, and an unused macro in catc.c.

USB2NET : SR9800 : change SR9800_BULKIN_SIZE from global to static

2022-04-22T11:43:35+00:00

Smatch reports this issue sr9800.h:166:53: warning: symbol 'SR9800_BULKIN_SIZE' was not declared. Should it be static? Global variables should not be defined in header files. This only works because sr9800.h in only included by sr9800.c Change the storage-class specifier to static. And since it does not change add type qualifier const.
