====================
40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2016-04-05
This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf only.
Stefan converts dev_close() to ndo_stop() for ethtool offline self test,
since dev_close() causes IFF_UP to be cleared which will remove the
interface routes and addresses.
Alex bumps up the size of the transmit data buffer to 12K rather than 8K,
which provides a gain in throughput and a reduction in overhead for
putting together the frame. Fixed an issue in the polling routines where
we were using bitwise operators to avoid the side effects of the
logical operators. Then added support for bulk transmit clean for skbs.
Jesse fixed a sparse issue in the type casting in the transmit code and
fixed i40e_aq_set_phy_debug() to use i40e_status as a return code.
Catherine cleans up duplicated code.
Shannon fixed the cleaning up of the interrupt handling to clean up the
IRQs only if we actually got them set up. Also fixed up the error
scenarios where we were trying to remove a non-existent timer or
worktask, which causes the kernel heartburn.
Mitch changes the notification of resets to the reset interrupt handler,
instead of the actual reset initiation code. This allows the VFs to get
properly notified for all resets, including resets initiated by different
PFs on the same physical device. Also moved the clearing of VFLR bit
after reset processing, instead of before which could lead to double
resets on VF init. Fixed code comment to match the actual function name.
