When copying the MAC RAR registers to PHY there is an error in the
calculation of the rar_entry_count, which causes a write of unknown/
undefined register space in the MAC to unknown/undefined register space in
the PHY.
This patch fixes the overrun with writing to the PHY RAR and also fixes the
ethtool offline register tests so that the correctly addressed registers
have the appropriate bitmasks for R/W and RO bits for affected parts.
Shawn Rader gets credit for finding and fixing the register overrun.

This patch adds logic in ethtool to allow setting and reporting the

====================
Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates
This series implements the new i40e driver for Intel's upcoming
Intel(R) Ethernet Controller XL710 Family of devices.
V7: many changes from a few comments:
use linux errno types
change I40E_SUCCESS to 0, standardize returns
change s32 return values to int
use void return values where possible
prefer use of int over i40e_status
V6: rename Kbuild to Makefile
rename i40e_mem[set|cpy] to regular memset/memcpy
V5: remove sysfs support from this set, will rearchitect
changes from community comments
V4: addresses remaining community comments, mostly trivial edits.
major sparse based cleanup of possible endian issues
removal of most of __func__ references
sizeof(*var) instead of sizeof(struct ...)
change 'NULL ==' tests to !NULL
implement xps
use kernel bitshift macros (upper_32_bits, etc)
V3: many more individual comments addressed, thanks reviewers! Many
other changes due to internal review and development.
V2: each patch has individual comments, in general, feedback from the
list was applied and addressed. Many changes due to internal review
and coding as well.
V1: initial send
Let me start by saying thanks and we appreciate any time spent by
those of you who review and comment on this new driver, and we will
attempt to address and respond to all issues brought to our attention.
I tried to break the patches up to ease review, but the series should
apply and still be bisectable, as the last patch adds the driver to
the kernel compile with CONFIG_I40E.
This driver is for a brand new bit of silicon that has a different
design than other Intel Ethernet silicon, and therefore needed a new
driver.
The hardware has quite a bit of capability and this driver is only
meant to provide basic functionality at first. Future patches will
continue to add functionality and bug fixes.
This initial release is very early in the product cycle with the intent
of getting initial support into the kernel before users have the
hardware available to purchase. A software development manual is not
ready yet but will be available when the hardware ships.
The driver development model and interaction with community submitted
patches *will not be any different* than what we are currently doing
today. We plan to continue established processes.
An associated i40evf driver has been posted for review.
List of tools we ran in preparation:
way more sparse clean
make W=1, W=2 clean
checkpatch (almost) clean
total: 1 errors, 4 warnings, 30461 lines checked
NOTE: Ignored message types: LONG_LINE
- issues have been addressed and the remainders
are noise.
codespell clean
smatch (almost) clean with a couple minor warnings
coccicheck clean
namespacecheck clean
allmodconfig clean
ppc64 build clean (untested)
This driver is a team effort, thank you to Joseph Gasparakis,
Shannon Nelson, Anjali Singhai-Jain, Mitch Williams, Neerav
Parikh, Vasu Dev, Kavindya Deegala, Yi Zou, and PJ Waskiewicz.

The "id" variable was being incremented in common code, but only
initialized and used in IPv4 code. We move the increment to the IPv4
code too, and then legitimately use the uninitialized_var() macro to
avoid the gcc 4.6 warning that 'id' may be used uninitialized.
Note that gcc 4.7 does not warn.

During initialization bnx2x allocates significant amounts of memory
(for rx data, rx SGEs, TPA pool) using atomic allocations.
I received a report where bnx2x failed to allocate SGEs and it had
to fall back to TPA-less operation.
Let's use GFP_KERNEL allocations during initialization, which runs
in process context. Add gfp_t parameters to functions that are used
both in initialization and in the receive path.
Use an unlikely branch in bnx2x_frag_alloc() to avoid atomic allocation
by netdev_alloc_frag(). The branch is taken several thousands of times
during initialization, but then never more. Note that fp->rx_frag_size
is never greater than PAGE_SIZE, so __get_free_page() can be used here.

The conflicts were minor:
1) sit.c changes overlap with change to ip_tunnel_xmit() signature.
2) br_multicast.c had an overlap between computing max_delay using
msecs_to_jiffies and turning MLDV2_MRC() into an inline function
with a name using lowercase instead of uppercase letters.
3) stmmac had two overlapping changes, one which conditionally allocated
and hooked up a dma_cfg based upon the presence of the pbl OF property,
and another one handling store-and-forward DMA made. The latter of
which should not go into the new of_find_property() basic block.
