40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2017-02-18
This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf only.
Alan fixes a bug in which the driver is unable to exit overflow
promiscuous mode after having added "too many" mac filters. Ractored
the '%*ph' printk format specifier to instead use the print_hex_dump().
Josh adds enabling multicast magic packet wakeup by adding calls to
the mac_address_write admin q function during power down to update the
PRTPM_SAH/SAL registers with the MC_MAG_EN bit.
Jake remove a duplicate call i40e_update_link_info(), since it does not
need to call it twice. Fixes and issue where we calculating the wrong
switch id on big endian platforms. Avoided sparse warning, by doing a
typecast to ensure the value is of the type expected by
csum_replace_by_diff().
Mitch fixes a memory leak by freeing resources during i40e_remove().
Cleans up some code confusion by adding a proper code comment.
Carolyn fixes a bug introduced with the addition of the per queue ITR
feature support in ethtool. Cleans up a duplicate device id from the
PCI table.
Harshitha fixes a bug which causes the 'Link Detected' field in
ethtool to report the correct link status.
Benjamin Poirier from SuSE applies a fix ec13ee8014 ("virtio_net:
invoke softirqs after __napi_schedule") to i40e driver as well.

These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
