[RFC: 2.6 patch] drivers/net/tg3.c: remove dead code

From: Adrian Bunk
Date: Tue Mar 22 2005 - 17:10:14 EST


The Coverity checker discovered that i never gets any value different
from 0 assigned.

I do not claim that this patch is correct, but if it isn't correct the
bug is that i never gets assigned any value.
