Stefan adds a igb patch to enable the ability strip VLAN header information for packets bound for a VM on i350 hardware. Joe Perches provides patches for e100, igb, igbvf, ixgbe and ixgbevf to convert the use of __constant_ to just to align with the rest of the kernel. Don provides two fixes for ixgbe, first resolves a link issue with DA cables where we were not always freeing the firmware/software semaphore after grabbing it. Second stops caching whether the management firmware was enabled, however since this is not static, we really need to verify with each check. Jacob provides six fixes/cleanups for ixgbe, most notably, correct the stop_mac_link_on d3() to check the Core Clock Disable bit before stopping link and to fully check to see if manage firmware is running or could be enabled before bringing down the link. Fix flow control auto-negation for KR/KX/K4 interfaces, since setting up MAC link, the cached autoc value and current autoc value were being incorrectly used to determine whether link reset is required. Emil provides a fix for ixgbe where there was a chance for aggressive start_ndo_zmit() callers to sneak packets between enabling the Tx queues and the link coming up. To resolve this, move the call to enable Tx queues to after the link is established. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller --- c60c8337ef4ab201783faa73246874be8561db4e
