====================
Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates
This series contains updates to i40e only (again).
Jesse provides a fix for when tx_rings structure is NULL and we do not want
to panic. Then refactors the flow control set up and disables L2 flow control
by default. Provides some trivial fixes as well as prevent compiler warnings.
Then to align to similar behaviour in ixgbe, use the total number of CPUs in
the system to suggest the number of transmit and receive queue pairs.
Shannon provides a i40e ethtool fix to get some more reasonable information
reports back out to the ethtool. In addition, fixes PF reset after offline
test, where it reorders the test to put the register test last as it is the
only one that needs a reset, and we wait to trigger the reset until after we
clear the testing bit. Lastly provides basic support for handling suspend
and resume for now, later on Wake-On-LAN support will be added.
Anjali provides changes to tell the stack about our actual number of queues
in order for RFS/RPS/XFS to work correctly. Then provides several patches to
implement dynamically changing the queue count for the main VSI. Adds
basic support for get/set channels for RSS so that the number of receive and
transmit queue pair can be changed via ethtool. Cleans up the use of
rtnl_lock in the reset patch since it runs from a work time.
Neerav Parikh cleans up the VF interface to remove FCoE code as this
feature will not be supported on VF interfaces.
v2:
- submitted patch 1 to net (since it was a fix needed for net), so dropped
from this series (this patch will get added to net-next when Dave syncs
his trees)
- Dropped patches 4 & 11 from previous submission because of feedback
received from Ben Hutchings and Sergei Shtylyov.
