====================
40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2016-02-19

This series contains updates to i40e/i40evf only.

Alex Duyck splits up the descriptor count function from the function that
stops the ring to have access to the descriptor count used for the data
portion of the frame.  The rewrites the logic for how we determine if we
can transmit the frame or if it needs to be linearized.  Place the checksum
close to TSO since they have a lot in common and it can help to reduce the
decision tree for how to handle the frame as the first check in TSO is to
see if checksumming is offloaded.

Carolyn adds functions to blink leds on devices using 10GBaseT PHY since
MAC registers used in other designs do not work in this device configuration.
Fixes an issue where a previously removed message has returned.

Kevin increases the timeout when checking GLGEN_RSTAT_DEVSTATE bit since
linking with particular PHY types, the amount of time it takes for the
GLGEN_RSTAT_DEVSTATE to be set increases greatly.

Neerav changes the receive queues to not wait to be disabled before DCB
has been reconfigured, like transmit queues.

Anjali adds new register definitions for programming the parser, flow
director and RSS blocks in the hardware.

Shannon adds the new opcodes and structures used for asking the firmware
to update receive control registers that need extra care when being
accessed while under heavy traffic.  Integrates the new AdminQ functions
for safely accessing the receive control registers that may be affected
by heavy small packet traffic.

Mitch provides another colorful patch description on letting go of
the stale local VSI pointer when the VF resets.
