====================
net: mvpp2: misc improvements and preparation patches
This series contains a number of fixes, misc improvements and
preparation patches for an upcoming series that adds support for the
new PPv2.2 network controller to the mvpp2 driver.
The most significant improvements are:
- Switching to using build_skb(), which is necessary for the upcoming
PPv2.2 support, but anyway a good improvement to the current mvpp2
driver (supporting PPv2.1).
- Making the driver build on 64-bit platforms.
Changes since v3:
- Addition of a patch "net: mvpp2: fix DMA address calculation in
mvpp2_txq_inc_put()", which fixes a bug in the driver in the
calculation of DMA addresses. This bug was found using
DMA_API_DEBUG.
- Modify the "net: mvpp2: switch to build_skb() in the RX path" patch
to recalculate the fragment size when the MTU is changed in
mvpp2_bm_update_mtu().
- Added Acked-by from Russell King on all patches, except:
* "net: mvpp2: fix DMA address calculation in
mvpp2_txq_inc_put()", because it's a new patch
* "net: mvpp2: switch to build_skb() in the RX path" because I
modified it since the v3.
- Rebased on top of 4.10.
Changes since v2:
- Fix remaining 64-bit build warning, reported by David Miller.
- Adjust how bit mask related definitions are done in "net: mvpp2:
simplify MVPP2_PRS_RI_* definitions" according to Russell King
suggestions.
- Add a patch "net: mvpp2: remove useless arguments in
mvpp2_rx_{pkts,time}_coal_set", suggested by Russell King.
- Rework mvpp2_rx_time_coal_set() implementation to avoid overflows
and rounding errors. I've used the implementation suggested by
Russell King.
Changes since v1:
- This series is split as a separate series from the larger patch set
adding support for PPv2.2 in the mvpp2 driver, as requested by
David Miller.
- Rebased on top of v4.10-rc1.
