Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates
This series contains updates to e1000, e1000e, ixgbe and i40evf.
Emil provides a fix for ixgbe so that non-fiber devices with MNG FW enabled
are able to link at 100Mbps.
Jacob provides several changes for ixgbe, most of which are PTP related.
Renames ixgbe_ptp_enable() to ixgbe_ptp_feature_enable() to better reflect
the functions purpose. Extracts the hardware setup logic for the PTP
hardware bits from the ixgbe_ptp_set_ts_config() to enable future work for
the ixgbe_ptp_reset(). Maintain the hwstamp configuration through a reset
and extracts the creation of the PTP clock device from ptp_init() in order
to properly handle a suspend/resume cycle and only calls it if we don't
already have a ptp_clock pointer.
David provides a patch to expend the e1000e driver to turn on unicast
PROMISC when there is failure to write to a shared receive address register.
The fix update_phy_task() for 82579 is expanded to include newer PHYs as well
so that the dev_spec->eee_lp_ability has the correct value when going into
SX states.
Todd provides a e1000e fix an errata for 82574/82583 where it is possible
bad bits are read from SYSTIMH/L so check to see that the time is
incrementing at a reasonable rate and is a multiple of the time incremental
value. Removes a redundant igb PHY power down register write.
Andi Kleen out of lines two write functions for e1000e to save 30k text size.
Tobias Klauser converts the e1000 and i40evf drivers to use the
is_broadcast_ether_addr() and is_multicast_ether_addr().
