Greg cleans up some "hello world" strings which were left around from early development. Shannon modifies the drive to make sure the sizeof() calls are taking the size of the actual struct that we care about. Also updates the NVMUpdate read/write so that it is less noisy when logging. This was because the NVMUpdate tool does not necessarily know the ReadOnly map of the current NVM image, and must try reading and writing words that may be protected. This generates an error out of the Firmware request that the driver logs. Unfortunately, this ended up spitting out hundreds of bogus read/write error messages. If a user wants the noisy logging, the change can be overridden by enabling the NVM update debugging. Mitch fixes a possible deadlock issue where if a reset occurred when the netdev is closed, the reset task will hang in napi_disable. Added ethtool RSS support as suggested by Ben Hutchings. Jesse fixes a bug introduced in the force writeback code, where the interrupt rate was set to 0 (maximum) by accident. The driver must correctly set the NOITR fields to avoid IT update as a side effect of triggering the software interrupt. I provided a simple cleanup to make the use of PF/VF consistent, which was reported by Joe Perches. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller --- 13259db53ff42c9033d749e01e7d6d3c4859dfd9
