Subject: net/mlx4_core: Load higher level modules according to ports type
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b046ffe54dc13ff8ae918c83bedb71aa7919d63b;p=linux-beck.git

net/mlx4_core: Load higher level modules according to ports type

Mellanox ConnectX architecture is:  mlx4_core is the lower level
PCI driver which register on the PCI id, and protocol specific drivers
are depended on it: mlx4_en - for Ethernet and mlx4_ib for Infiniband.
NIC could have multiple ports which can change their type dynamically.
We use the request_module() call to load the relevant protocol driver
when needed: on loading time or at port type change event.
