====================
Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2016-07-14
This series contains fixes to i40e and ixgbe.
Alex fixes issues found in i40e_rx_checksum() which was broken, where the
checksum was being returned valid when it was not.
Kiran fixes a bug which was found when we abruptly remove a cable which
caused a panic. Set the VSI broadcast promiscuous mode during VSI add
sequence and prevents adding MAC filter if specified MAC address is
broadcast.
Paolo Abeni fixes a bug by returning the actual work done, capped to
weight - 1, since the core doesn't allow to return the full budget when
the driver modifies the NAPI status.
Guilherme Piccoli fixes an issue where the q_vector initialization
routine sets the affinity _mask of a q_vector based on v_idx value.
This means a loop iterates on v_idx, which is an incremental value, and
the cpumask is created based on this value. This is a problem in
systems with multiple logical CPUs per core (like in SMT scenarios).
Changed the way q_vector's affinity_mask is created to resolve the issue.
