====================
1GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2016-04-06
This series contains updates to e1000, e1000e, igb and Kconfig.
Alex fixes igb where we were casting the MAC address as __beXX and then
passing it into le32_to_cpu, when we could simply cast as __lexx to
maintain consistency since it is already little endian. Then enabled
bulk free in transmit cleanup for igb.
John Holland enables igb to pickup the MAC address from a device tree
blob when CONFIG_OF has been enabled.
Doron Shikmoni fixes a bug in the output of "ethtool -m ethX" where
the data byte appeared duplicated.
Stefan fixes up e1000 and e1000e ethtool offline tests which were calling
dev_close() which causes IFF_UP to be cleared which removes teh interface
routes and some addresses, so use ndo_stop() instead.
Jiri Benc cleans up some old links in the Kconfig for Intel drivers where
we referred to a URL which is no longer valid. I am so glad Jiri has the
time in his day to spend clicking on and testing all the URL links in the
the kernel.
Arika Chen reverts the addition of a 'rtnl_unlock()' which had a unmatched
'rtnl_lock()' call before it.
