====================
Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-11-25
This series contains updates to fm10k, i40e and i40evf.
Alex Duyck fixes up fm10k to use napi_schedule_irqoff() instead of
napi_schedule() since the function it is called from runs from hard interrupt
context or with interrupts already disabled in netpoll.
Shannon cleans up i40e and i40evf unused cd_tunneling parameter and any code
comments that refer to it. Then clean up a few instances of BUG_ON, based
on a Linux diatribe, especially when WARN_ON can be used.
Helin fixed a issue where using ethtool RXNFC command could let receive
flow hash could be set on disabled queues, so resolve by returning the
number of enabled queues before setting RXNFC.
Anjali fixes a MSS issue where the hardware/NVM sets a limit of no less than
256 bytes for MSS, yet the stack can send as low as 76 byte MSS. Fixed the
issue by lowering the hardware limit to 64 bytes to avoid MDDs from firing
and causing a reset when the MSS is lower than 256. Added a statistic to
track how many times we forced to do a write back on transmit if the
number of descriptors pending are less than a cache line.
Catherine fixes link status changes, where polling would only change link
status changes in one direction depending on what the last old data saved
off was. This was due to the watchdog only calling link_event and not
handle_link_event.
Mitch cleans up and enhances error messages related to VF MAC/VLAN filters.
v2: Dropped patch "i40e: Properly cast type for arithmetic" patch
based on feedback from the community
