====================
40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2017-04-08
This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf only.
Mitch fixes an issue where the client driver (i40iw) was attempting to
load on x710 devices (which do not support iWARP), so only register with
the client if iWARP is supported.
Jake fixes up error messages to better clarify to the user when adding a
invalid flow type. Updates the driver to look up the MAC address from
eth_get_platform_mac_address() first before checking what the firmware
provides. Cleans up code so we are not repeating a duplicate loop, by
checking both transmit and receive queues in a single loop. Also cleans
up flags never used, so remove the definitions.
Alex does cleanup so that we are always updating pf->flags when a change
is made to the private flags. Adds support for 3K buffers to the receive
path so that we can provide the additional padding needed in the event
of NET_IP_ALIGN being non-zero or a cache line being greater than 64.
Adds support for build_skb() to i40e/i40evf.
Maciej adjusts the scope of the rtnl lock held during reset because it
was stopping other PFs from running their reset procedures.
Alan reduces code complexity in i40e_detect_recover_hung_queue().
