It's an error if the value of the RX/TX tail descriptor does not match
what was written. The error condition is true regardless the duration
of the interference from ME. But the driver only performs the reset if
E1000_ICH_FWSM_PCIM2PCI_COUNT (2000) iterations of 50us delay have
transpired. The extra condition can lead to inconsistency between the
state of hardware as expected by the driver.
Fix this by dropping the check for number of delay iterations.
While at it, also make __ew32_prepare() static as it's not used
anywhere else.

The way Rx queue assignment based on mac address, Ethertype and VLAN
priority filtering operates in I225 doesn't allow us to properly support
NFC rules with multiple matches.
Consider the following example which assigns to queue 2 frames matching
the address MACADDR *and* Ethertype ETYPE.
$ ethtool -N eth0 flow-type ether dst <MACADDR> proto <ETYPE> queue 2
When such rule is applied, we have 2 unwanted behaviors:
1) Any frame matching MACADDR will be assigned to queue 2. It
doesn't matter the ETYPE value.
2) Any accepted frame that has Ethertype equals to ETYPE, no matter
the mac address, will be assigned to queue 2 as well.
In current code, multiple-match filters are accepted by the driver, even
though it doesn't support them properly. This patch adds a check for
multiple-match rules in igc_ethtool_is_nfc_rule_valid() so they are
rejected.

net: ks8851: Unify KS8851 SPI and MLL drivers
The KS8851SNL/SNLI and KS8851-16MLL/MLLI/MLLU are very much the same pieces
of silicon, except the former has an SPI interface, while the later has a
parallel bus interface. Thus far, Linux has two separate drivers for each
and they are diverging considerably.
This series unifies them into a single driver with small SPI and parallel
bus specific parts. The approach here is to first separate out the SPI
specific parts into a separate file, then add parallel bus accessors in
another separate file and then finally remove the old parallel bus driver.
The reason for replacing the old parallel bus driver is because the SPI
bus driver is much higher quality.
Note that I dropped "net: ks8851: Drop define debug and pr_fmt()" for now,
will send it separatelly later.

Implement accessors for KS8851-16MLL/MLLI/MLLU parallel bus variant of
the KS8851. This is based off the ks8851_mll.c , which is a driver for
exactly the same hardware, however the ks8851.c code is much higher
quality. Hence, this patch pulls out the relevant information from the
ks8851_mll.c on how to access the bus, but uses the common ks8851.c
code. To make this patch reviewable, instead of rewriting ks8851_mll.c,
ks8851_mll.c is removed in a separate subsequent patch.

The ks8851_rdreg32() is used only in one place, to read two registers
using a single read. To make it easier to support 16-bit accesses via
parallel bus later on, replace this single read with two 16-bit reads
from each of the registers and drop the ks8851_rdreg32() altogether.
If this has noticeable performance impact on the SPI variant of KS8851,
then we should consider using regmap to abstract the SPI and parallel
bus options and in case of SPI, permit regmap to merge register reads
of neighboring registers into single, longer, read.

====================
vmxnet3: upgrade to version 4
vmxnet3 emulation has recently added several new features which includes
offload support for tunnel packets, support for new commands the driver
can issue to emulation, change in descriptor fields, etc. This patch
series extends the vmxnet3 driver to leverage these new features.
Compatibility is maintained using existing vmxnet3 versioning mechanism as
follows:
- new features added to vmxnet3 emulation are associated with new vmxnet3
version viz. vmxnet3 version 4.
- emulation advertises all the versions it supports to the driver.
- during initialization, vmxnet3 driver picks the highest version number
supported by both the emulation and the driver and configures emulation
to run at that version.
In particular, following changes are introduced:
Patch 1:
This patch introduces utility macros for vmxnet3 version 4 comparison
and updates Copyright information.
Patch 2:
This patch implements get_rss_hash_opts and set_rss_hash_opts methods
to allow querying and configuring different Rx flow hash configurations
which can be used to support UDP/ESP RSS.
Patch 3:
This patch introduces segmentation and checksum offload support for
encapsulated packets. This avoids segmenting and calculating checksum
for each segment and hence gives performance boost.
Patch 4:
With all vmxnet3 version 4 changes incorporated in the vmxnet3 driver,
with this patch, the driver can configure emulation to run at vmxnet3
version 4.
Changes in v3 -> v4:
- Replaced BUG_ON() with WARN_ON_ONCE()
Changes in v2 -> v3:
- fixed get_rss_hash_opts to return correct values for udp rss
Changes in v2:

With all vmxnet3 version 4 changes incorporated in the vmxnet3 driver,
the driver can configure emulation to run at vmxnet3 version 4, provided
the emulation advertises support for version 4.

Vmxnet3 version 3 device supports checksum/TSO offload. Thus, vNIC to
pNIC traffic can leverage hardware checksum/TSO offloads. However,
vmxnet3 does not support checksum/TSO offload for Geneve/VXLAN
encapsulated packets. Thus, for a vNIC configured with an overlay, the
guest stack must first segment the inner packet, compute the inner
checksum for each segment and encapsulate each segment before
transmitting the packet via the vNIC. This results in significant
performance penalty.
This patch will enhance vmxnet3 to support Geneve/VXLAN TSO as well as
checksum offload.

With vmxnet3 version 4, the emulation supports multiqueue(RSS) for
UDP and ESP traffic. A guest can enable/disable RSS for UDP/ESP over
IPv4/IPv6 by issuing commands introduced in this patch. ESP ipv6 is
not yet supported in this patch.
This patch implements get_rss_hash_opts and set_rss_hash_opts
methods to allow querying and configuring different Rx flow hash
configurations.
