When vlan device is configured on top of the brige, it does
not support any offload capabilities because the bridge
device does not initiliaze vlan_fatures. Set vlan_fatures to
be equivalent to hw_fatures.

====================
This series contain several small enhancements - chief among those are
the implementation of ethtool's private flags callback to share information
about the storage offload capabilities of its network interfaces,
and the prevention of a link flap when booting from storage area networks.
Changes from V1:
- Patch 1, removed trailing whitespaces from private flag strings.

During PCIe advanced error recovery, the secondary bus reset will cause FW
to reset; This will cause the shared memory between it and the driver to be
invalidated.
During the driver's recovery flow, the driver should not make any assumption
on the validity of that memory and instead re-initialize it.
This also removes a redundant re-initialization of a previously
initialized mutex.

As part of the previous unload flow, probed devices will reset the chip
in order to clean the remains of the UNDI driver.
As a result, it's possible for the FW to toggle the link.
This toggling can prove fatal, as long periods without link can cause the
filesystem mount to fail as the storage protocol timeouts. This has been
observed against particular switches with long link re-establishment time.
This patch informs FW during the reset period that the link should not
be toggled - the FW will keep it alive until some interface will load and claim
the link as its own.

====================
This series adds a new feature called split event channels.
In the original implementation, only one event channel is setup between
frontend and backend. This is not ideal as TX notification interferes with RX
notification. Using dedicated event channels for TX and RX solves this issue.
Changes since V2:
* feature_split_event_channels -> separate_tx_rx_irq
* make separate_tx_rx_irq bool
* document this feature in header file
* don't report fatal if writing feature to xenstore fails
* frontend will fall back to single event channel if new feature setup fails
Changes since V1:
* change subject lines of commits to be more specific
* add parameter feature_split_event_channels for xen-netback
* remove two dev_info

Netback and netfront only use one event channel to do TX / RX notification,
which may cause unnecessary wake-up of processing routines. This patch adds a
new feature called feature-split-event-channels to netback, enabling it to
handle TX and RX events separately.
Netback will use tx_irq to notify guest for TX completion, rx_irq for RX
notification.
If frontend doesn't support this feature, tx_irq equals to rx_irq.

If a GSO packet has a length above tbf burst limit, the packet
is currently silently dropped.
Current way to handle this is to set the device in non GSO/TSO mode, or
setting high bursts, and its sub optimal.
We can actually segment too big GSO packets, and send individual
segments as tbf parameters allow, allowing for better interoperability.

Currently the SMSC911X driver may only be built for a specific set of
architectures, being limited to do so by a Kconfig depends line. This
means that if a platform wishes to use the driver, its architecture must
be added to the list explicitly, introducing pointless churn.
This may have been due to the driver's use of the {read,write}s{b,w,l}
functions, which have since been replaced with the more standard
io{read,write}{8,16,32}_rep. We can instead depend on HAS_IOMEM, which
should prevent build issues while allowing the driver to be built for
currently unlisted architectures, including x86 and arm64.
This patch removes the explicit list of architectures from the driver's
depend line, and replaces it with a dependency on HAS_IOMEM.

This is a generic solution to resolve a specific problem that I have observed.
If the encapsulation of an skb changes then ability to offload checksums
may also change. In particular it may be necessary to perform checksumming
in software.
An example of such a case is where a non-GRE packet is received but
is to be encapsulated and transmitted as GRE.
Another example relates to my proposed support for for packets
that are non-MPLS when received but MPLS when transmitted.
The cost of this change is that the value of the csum variable may be
checked when it previously was not. In the case where the csum variable is
true this is pure overhead. In the case where the csum variable is false it
leads to software checksumming, which I believe also leads to correct
checksums in transmitted packets for the cases described above.
Further analysis:
This patch relies on the return value of can_checksum_protocol()
being correct and in turn the return value of skb_network_protocol(),
used to provide the protocol parameter of can_checksum_protocol(),
being correct. It also relies on the features passed to skb_segment()
and in turn to can_checksum_protocol() being correct.
I believe that this problem has not been observed for VLANs because it
appears that almost all drivers, the exception being xgbe, set
vlan_features such that that the checksum offload support for VLAN packets
is greater than or equal to that of non-VLAN packets.
I wonder if the code in xgbe may be an oversight and the hardware does
support checksumming of VLAN packets. If so it may be worth updating the
vlan_features of the driver as this patch will force such checksums to be
performed in software rather than hardware.

Currently we arm the expire timer when the mdb entry is added,
however, this causes problem when there is no querier sent
out after that.
So we should only arm the timer when a corresponding query is
received, as suggested by Herbert.
And he also mentioned "if there is no querier then group
subscriptions shouldn't expire. There has to be at least one querier
in the network for this thing to work. Otherwise it just degenerates
into a non-snooping switch, which is OK."

Quote from Adam:
"If it is believed that the use of 0.0.0.0
as the IP address is what is causing strange behaviour on other devices
then is there a good reason that a bridge rather than a router shouldn't
be the active querier? If not then using the bridge IP address and
having the querier enabled by default may be a reasonable solution
(provided that our querier obeys the election rules and shuts up if it
sees a query from a lower IP address that isn't 0.0.0.0). Just because a
device is the elected querier for IGMP doesn't appear to mean it is
required to perform any other routing functions."
And introduce a new troggle for it, as suggested by Herbert.

Jeff Kirsher says:
====================
This series contains updates to e1000e, igb and ixgbe.
Bruce Allan provide 2 minor cleanups for e1000e to resolve whitespace
issues and build warnings about unused parameters.
Carolyn provides a couple of fixes for igb, one being a fix for a
possible panic when the interface is down and receive traffic
arrives. The second fix resolves an issue on newer parts which have
multiple checksum fields and set_ethtool was only checking to update
the first checksum of the NVM image.
Akeem provides majority of the changes in this patch set. Akeem
provides a fix for e1000e on an issue reported from the community to
resolve the issue of unlocking swflag_mutex for 82574 and 82583
devices even if the hardware semaphore was successfully acquired.
The other patches from Akeem are against igb, where he adds support
SFP module discovery, LED blink mechanism for devices using cathodes,
LED support for i210/i211 parts and cleanup of a i2c function which
was not being used.
Matthew provides an update for igb to support a more accurate check
for a PTP RX hang.
Amir provides a patch for ixgbe to set the software prio_tc values at
initialization to the hardware setting to remove the need to reset the
device at the first time we call ixgbe_dcbnl_ieee_setets.
