100GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2017-10-03
This series contains updates to fm10k only.
Jake provides majority of the changes in this series, starting with using
fm10k_prepare_for_reset() if we lose PCIe link. Before we would detach
the device and close the netdev, which left a lot of items still active,
such as the Tx/Rx resources. This could cause problems where register
reads would return potentially invalid values and would result in unknown
driver behavior, so call fm10k_prepare_for_reset() much like we do for
suspend/resume cycles. This will attempt to shutdown as much as possible
to prevent possible issues. Then replaced the PCI specific legacy power
management hooks with the new generic power management hooks for both
suspend and hibernate. Introduced a workqueue item which monitors a
queue of MAC and VLAN requests since a large number of MAC address or
VLAN updates at once can overload the mailbox with too many messages at
once. Fixed a cppcheck warning by properly declaring the min_rate and
max_rate variables in the declaration and definition for .ndo_set_vf_bw,
rather than using "unused" for the minimum rates.
Joe Perches fixes the backward logic when using net_ratelimit().
