This adds an ixgbe data structure that is used to determine what
headers:fields can be matched and in what order they are supported.
For hardware devices this can be a bit tricky because typically
only pre-programmed (firmware, ucode, rtl) parse graphs will be
supported and we don't yet have an interface to change these from
the OS. So its sort of a you get whatever your friendly vendor
provides affair at the moment.
In the future we can add the get routines and set routines to
update this data structure. One interesting thing to note here
is the data structure here identifies ethernet, ip, and tcp
fields without having to hardcode them as enumerations or use
other identifiers.

The ndo_setup_tc() op was added to support drivers offloading tx
qdiscs however only support for mqprio was ever added. So we
only ever added support for passing the number of traffic classes

This patch generalizes the ndo_setup_tc op so that a handle can
be provided to indicate if the offload is for ingress or egress
or potentially even child qdiscs.

There are several scenarios where taking a register dump from a device
might log benign GRC timeout attentions to system logs.
Most common of those is when taking the dump from a 2-port device.

This change has been made with the goal that kernel functions should
return something more descriptive than -1 on failure.
A variable `err` has been introduced for storing error codes.
The return value of kzalloc on failure should return a -1 and not a
-ENOMEM. This was found using Coccinelle. A simplified version of
the semantic patch used is:
//<smpl>
@@
expression *e;
identifier l1;
@@
e = kzalloc(...);
if (e == NULL) {
...
goto l1;
}
l1:
...
return -1
+ -ENOMEM
;
//</smpl
Furthermore, set `err` to -ENOMEM on failure of alloc_netdev(), and to
-ENODEV on failure of register_netdev() and probe_irq_off().
The single call site only checks that the return value is not 0,
hence no change is required at the call site.

1GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2016-02-15
This series contains updates to igb only.
Shota Suzuki cleans up unnecessary flag setting for 82576 in
igb_set_flag_queue_pairs() since the default block already sets
IGB_FLAG_QUEUE_PAIRS to the correct value anyways, so the e1000_82576
code block is not necessary and we can simply fall through. Then fixes
an issue where IGB_FLAG_QUEUE_PAIRS can now be set by using "ethtool -L"
option but is never cleared unless the driver is reloaded, so clear the
queue pairing if the pairing becomes unnecessary as a result of "ethtool
-L".
Mitch fixes the igbvf from giving up if it fails to get the hardware
mailbox lock. This can happen when the PF-VF communication channel is
heavily loaded and causes complete communications failure between the
PF and VF drivers, so add a counter and a delay so that the driver will
now retry ten times before giving up on getting the mailbox lock.
The remaining patches in the series are from Alex Duyck, starting with the
cleaning up code that sets the MAC address. Then refactors the VFTA and
VLVF configuration, to simplify and update to similar setups in the ixgbe
driver. Fixed an issue were VLANs headers size was being added to the
value programmed into the RLPML registers, yet these registers already
take into account the size of the VLAN headers when determining the
maximum packet length, so we can drop the code that adds the size to
the RLPML registers. Cleaned up the configuration of the VF port based
VLAN configuration. Also fixed the igb driver so that we can fully
support SR-IOV or the recently added NTUPLE filtering while allowing
support for VLAN promiscuous mode. Also added the ability to use the
bridge utility to add a FDB entry for the PF to an igb port.

There was a workaround partially implemented for the 82576 that is needed
in order for VLAN tag stripping to function correctly. The original code
had side effects that would make it so the workaround was active on all
MACs. I have updated the code so that the workaround is enabled, but
limited to the 82576, or activated if we exceed the available unicast
addresses.
The workaround has a side effect of mirroring all of the traffic outgoing
from the VFs back to the PF. As such it is not recommended to use the
82576 in promiscuous mode as it will take a performance hit, though this is
now consistent with the performance as seen on the out-of-tree igb driver.
I also limited the scope of the UTA bits all being set to only when the
VMOLR register is enabled. This should limit the effects of the UTA
register so that we don't pick up any excess traffic unless promiscuous
mode has been enabled on the PF, whereas before the PF would have ended up
in something equivalent to unicast promiscuous mode with VLAN filtering
otherwise.

This patch is meant to clean-up the configuration of the VF port based VLAN
configuration. The original logic was a bit muddled and had some
