      ====================
      Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2014-06-24
      
      This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf.
      
      Greg provides a patch to stop the VF device after setting its MAC address.
      This is due to if the host VMM administrator has changed the VF device's MAC
      address then the i40e driver needs to halt the VF device so that the
      administrator will be forced to reload the VF driver so that the VF driver
      will start using the newly assigned MAC address.
      
      Shannon provides several patches for i40e, first makes prep_for_test() a
      void function since the return value was being ignored for the most part
      by all its callers.  Adds a log warning when the firmware's API minor/major
      number is not what we expect to assist the user by informing them they
      may need to update their NVM or SW.  Cleans up a stray print message
      so that it is similar to other print messages.  Ensures to set the
      WoL flag when setting LAA and allow the user to set LAA again.  So do
      not short-circuit the LAA assignment when the driver thinks it has
      already been done as it is possible that the user might want to force
      the address setting again.  Provides a couple more LAA fixes to ensure
      the LAA gets restored after resets.
      
      Neerav provides a patch for i40e to add a PF reset when a malicious driver
      event for the PF occurs.  As per the specification when the PF driver
      receives a malicious driver event the queue that caused the event is
      already stopped and it is expected that the function that owns the queue
      will reset the queue, but in some cases it may not be possible to determine
      the queue, so it is suggested to reset the whole function.
      
      Carolyn fixes ethtool coalesce settings to allow 0 as a disable value and
      adds message to user about invalid values.
      
      Jesse removes a reserved type which was not removed from the code.
      
      Catherine provides a patch to add the ability to enable/disable link from
      set_link)restart_an() which will make it easy to toggle link without
      calling set_phy_config() when no other link settings need to change.
      
      Anjali provides a patch to ensure we do a PF reset on Tx hang and that
      way we avoid any Malicious Driver Detect (MDD) events because of a Tx
      queue disable failure.
      
      v2:
       - fixed the un-needed return in patch 2 based on feedback from Sergei Shtylyov
       - added punctuation to print statements and code comment based on
         feedback from Sergei Shtylyov

      Use bool instead of int as the return type.
      
      All uses are tested with !.
