Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2014-09-18
This series contains updates to ixgbe and ixgbevf.
Ethan Zhao cleans up ixgbe and ixgbevf by removing bd_number from the
adapter struct because it is not longer useful.
Mark fixes ixgbe where if a hardware transmit timestamp is requested,
an uninitialized workqueue entry may be scheduled. Added a check for
a PTP clock to avoid that.
Jacob provides a number of cleanups for ixgbe. Since we may call
ixgbe_acquire_msix_vectors() prior to registering our netdevice, we
should not use the netdevice specific printk and use e_dev_warn()
instead. Similar to how ixgbevf handles acquiring MSI-X vectors, we
can return an error code instead of relying on the flag being set.
This makes it more clear that we have failed to setup MSI-X mode and
will make it easier to consolidate MSI-X related code into a single
function. In the case of disabling DCB, it is not an error since we
still can function, we just have to let the user know. So use
e_dev_warn() instead of e_err(). Added warnings for other features
that are disabled when we are without MSI-X support. Cleanup flags
that are no longer used or needed.
