Subject: [PATCH] net: add devm version of alloc_etherdev_mqs function
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

This patch adds devm_alloc_etherdev_mqs function and devm_alloc_etherdev
macro. These can be used for simpler netdev allocation without having to
care about calling free_netdev.

Thanks to this change drivers, their error paths and removal paths may
get simpler by a bit.
