[PATCH] net/macb: move to circ_buf macros and fix initial condition

From: Nicolas Ferre
Date: Mon Nov 19 2012 - 10:17:16 EST


Move to circular buffers management macro and correct an error
with circular buffer initial condition.

Without this patch, the macb_tx_ring_avail() function was
not reporting the proper ring availability at startup:
macb macb: eth0: BUG! Tx Ring full when queue awake!
macb macb: eth0: tx_head = 0, tx_tail = 0
And hanginig forever...

I remove the macb_tx_ring_avail() function and use the
proven macros from circ_buf.h. CIRC_CNT() is used in the
"consumer" part of the driver: macb_tx_interrupt() to match
advice from Documentation/circular-buffers.txt.
