Subject: bnx2x: Ack unknown VF messages
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=70ca5d746cf0c16576cee43fea6a19116ab49d9c;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git

bnx2x: Ack unknown VF messages

A PF should ack the firmware when receiving unknown messages through the VF's
mailbox. This prevents the VF mailbox from being stuck in case of a VF sending
a message unknown to the PF (e.g. VF with more advanced version).
