David S. Miller f5333f80c3 Merge branch '40GbE' of ra.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/next-queue
Jeff Kirsher says:

====================
40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2017-10-06

This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf only.

Rami fixes a typo in the code comments.

Mitch adds an ethtool private flag to control source pruning to resolve an
issue where our default behavior is to enable source pruning which breaks ARP
monitoring in channel bonding.  Fixes a couple of register definitions, which
were incorrect.

Jake fixes an issue with multiple logical CPUs per core (simultaneous
multithreading - SMT) and how we set an affinity hint based on the v_idx of
that q_vector, which is an incremental value and might lead to multiple
offline CPUs being assigned to a q_vector.  Instead, we should only assign
hints for CPUs which are online, so look to use cpumask_local_spread().
Also fixed a VF VLAN tag stripping issue, where the flag created to change
this feature was seen as unchangeable.  Lastly, organized and re-numbered
the feature flags.

Alan re-enables PTP L4 for XL710 devices with firmware version 6.0 or
greater, now that the previous bug in the older firmware is fixed.
Implements the PCI error handlers for reset_prepare() and reset_done() to
allow us to handle function level resets.

Alice cleans up code that was added to the incorrect function during a
merge.

Filip adds a change to display an error message when a module is inserted
that does not meet the thermal requirements, Talking Heads "Burning Down
the House" comes to mind.  Also fixed a flow director filter issue where
a variable was not being cleared which stores the filter number to be
removed from the list when the firmware refused to add the requested
filter.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
