[PATCH] DAC960, remove redundant (and uninitialized) PciDevice pointer.

From: Dave Olien
Date: Mon Sep 22 2003 - 12:32:10 EST



this patch fixes a bug that appeared only on Alpha hardware with
DAC960 controllers. The Command->PciDevice structure member was
never initialized. This was passed to the pci scatter/gather functions.
This didn't cause a problem for x86 platforms because the scatter/gather
funtions never really used that information. Alpha platforms do use
that pointer.

The Command->PciDevice field was also redundant with the Controller->PCIDevice
field, which IS initialized properly. So, eliminating the redundant
structure member and substituting the Controller's member fixes the bug.
