      ====================
      mlx5e-updates-2018-10-01
      
      This series includes updates to mlx5e ethernet netdevice driver:
      
      From Or Gerlitz:
      1) Support masks for l3/l4 filters in ethtool flow steering
      2) Report checksum unnecessary also when the L3 checksum flag on the
         cqe is set and there's no L4 header
      3) Allow reporting of checksum unnecessary, using an ethtool private flag.
      
      From Gavi Teitz and Or, VF representors netdevs performance improvements
      4) Allow striding RQ in VF representor and bigger RQ size, ~3X performance improvement
      5) Enable stateless offloads for VF representor, csum and TSO, 1.5X performance improvement
      6) RSS Support for VF representors
         6.1) Allow flow table destination fir VF representor steering rule.
         6.2) Create RSS flow table per representor netdev
         6.3) Expose mlx5e RSS ethtool to be used by representor netdevs
         6.4) Enable multi-queue and RSS for VF representors, using mlx5e existing infrastructure
                  for managing a multi-queue RX RSS tables.
      
      From Alaa Hleihel:
      7) Cache the system image guid, The system image guid is a read-only field
         Read this once and save it on the core device.

      tcp: start receiver buffer autotuning sooner · 041a14d2
      Yuchung Cheng authored
      Previously receiver buffer auto-tuning starts after receiving
      one advertised window amount of data. After the initial receiver
      buffer was raised by patch a337531b ("tcp: up initial rmem to
      128KB and SYN rwin to around 64KB"), the reciver buffer may take
      too long to start raising. To address this issue, this patch lowers
      the initial bytes expected to receive roughly the expected sender's
      initial window.
      
      Fixes: a337531b ("tcp: up initial rmem to 128KB and SYN rwin to around 64KB")
