Merge branch '100GbE' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/next-queue



Jeff Kirsher says:

====================
100GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2016-04-05

This series contains updates to fm10k only.

Bruce provides nearly half of the patches in the series, most of which do
general cleanup of the driver.  These include semantic cleanups,
checkpatch.pl fixes, update driver to use BIT() kernel macro, use
BUILD_BUG_ON() where appropriate and use ether_addr_copy() instead of
memcpy().

Jake provides the remaining patches in the series, starting with a fix
for a possible NULL pointer deference.  Next delays initialization of the
service timer and service task until late in probe().  If we do not wait,
failures in probe do not properly cleanup the service timer or service
task items which result in a kernel panic.  Added better reporting during
error conditions.  Fixed another possible kernel panic where we were
clearing the interrupt scheme before we freed the mailbox IRQ.  Added
helper functions for setting strings and data for ethtool stats.  Fixed
comment mis-spelled words.

v2: Dropped patch 3 from the original submission, until a better solution
    can be worked up based on feedback from Joe Perches and David Miller.
