net_device->irq vs pci_dev->irq
Sent this to linux-net@ with no response today, anyone care to comment?
In the e1000-5.2.30.1 driver, "they" no longer propagate pdev->irq into netdev->irq. This looks safe to add back in, am I mistaken? I want ifconfig to report the irq, which it no longer does without netdev->irq.
This is on a 2.4 kernel (no MSI).
thx

netdev->irq is purely informational. Setting, or not, is largely irrelevant these days.
