====================
Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates

This series contains updates to e100, igb, igbvf, ixgbe and ixgbevf.

Stefan adds a igb patch to enable the ability strip VLAN header information
for packets bound for a VM on i350 hardware.

Joe Perches provides patches for e100, igb, igbvf, ixgbe and ixgbevf to
convert the use of __constant_<foo> to just <foo> to align with the rest
of the kernel.

Don provides two fixes for ixgbe, first resolves a link issue with DA
cables where we were not always freeing the firmware/software semaphore
after grabbing it.  Second stops caching whether the management firmware
was enabled, however since this is not static, we really need to verify
with each check.

Jacob provides six fixes/cleanups for ixgbe, most notably, correct
the stop_mac_link_on d3() to check the Core Clock Disable bit before
stopping link and to fully check to see if manage firmware is running or
could be enabled before bringing down the link.  Fix flow control
auto-negation for KR/KX/K4 interfaces, since setting up MAC link, the
cached autoc value and current autoc value were being incorrectly used to
determine whether link reset is required.

Emil provides a fix for ixgbe where there was a chance for aggressive
start_ndo_zmit() callers to sneak packets between enabling the Tx queues
and the link coming up.  To resolve this, move the call to enable Tx
queues to after the link is established.
