      net: slightly optimize eth_type_trans · 45cf7959
      Li RongQing authored
      netperf udp stream shows that eth_type_trans takes certain cpu,
      so adjust the mac address check order, and firstly check if it
      is device address, and only check if it is multicast address
      only if not the device address.
      
      After this change:
      To unicast, and skb dst mac is device mac, this is most of time
      reduce a comparision
      To unicast, and skb dst mac is not device mac, nothing change
      To multicast, increase a comparision
      
      Before:
      1.03%  [kernel]          [k] eth_type_trans
      
      After:
      0.78%  [kernel]          [k] eth_type_trans

      ====================
      40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2018-11-14
      
      This series contains updates to i40e and virtchnl.
      
      Lance Roy updates i40e to use lockdep_assert_held() instead of
      spin_is_locked(), since it is better suited to check locking
      requirements.
      
      Jan improves the code readability in XDP by adding the use of a local
      variable.  Provides protection on methods that create/modify/destroy
      VF's via locking mechanism to prevent unstable behaviour and potential
      kernel panics.
      
      Krzysztof adds a hardware capability flag to indicate whether firmware
      supports stopping the LLDP agent.
      
      Patryk replaces the use of strncpy() with strlcpy() to ensure the buffer
      is NULL terminated.
      
      Mitch fixes the issue of trying to start nway on devices that do not
      support auto-negotiation, by checking the autoneg state before
      attempting to restart nway.
      
      Alice updates virtchnl to keep the checks all together for ease of
      readability and consistency.  Also fixed a "off by one" error in the
      number of traffic classes being calculated.
      
      Richard fixed VF port VLANs, where the priority bits were incorrectly
      set because the incorrect shift and mask bits were being used.
      
      Alan adds a bit to set and check if a timeout recovery is already
      pending to prevent overlapping transmit timeout recovery.
