Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) Brown paper bag fix in HTB scheduler, class options set incorrectly
    due to a typoe.  Fix from Vimalkumar.

 2) It's possible for the ipv6 FIB garbage collector to run before all
    the necessary datastructure are setup during init, defer the
    notifier registry to avoid this problem.  Fix from Michal Kubecek.

 3) New i40e ethernet driver from the Intel folks.

 4) Add new qmi wwan device IDs, from Bjørn Mork.

 5) Doorbell lock in bnx2x driver is not initialized properly in some
    configurations, fix from Ariel Elior.

 6) Revert an ipv6 packet option padding change that broke standardized
    ipv6 implementation test suites.  From Jiri Pirko.

 7) Fix synchronization of ARP information in bonding layer, from
    Nikolay Aleksandrov.

 8) Fix missing error return resulting in illegal memory accesses in
    openvswitch, from Daniel Borkmann.

 9) SCTP doesn't signal poll events properly due to mistaken operator
    precedence, fix also from Daniel Borkmann.

10) __netdev_pick_tx() passes wrong index to sk_tx_queue_set() which
    essentially disables caching of TX queue in sockets :-/ Fix from
    Eric Dumazet.

+Linux Base Driver for the Intel(R) Ethernet Controller XL710 Family

+Identifying Your Adapter
+========================
+
+The driver in this release is compatible with the Intel Ethernet
+Controller XL710 Family.
+
+For more information on how to identify your adapter, go to the Adapter &
+Driver ID Guide at:
+
+    http://support.intel.com/support/network/sb/CS-012904.htm
+
+
+Enabling the driver
+===================
+
+The driver is enabled via the standard kernel configuration system,
+using the make command:
+
+     Make oldconfig/silentoldconfig/menuconfig/etc.
+
+The driver is located in the menu structure at:
+
+        -> Device Drivers
+          -> Network device support (NETDEVICES [=y])
+            -> Ethernet driver support
+              -> Intel devices
+                -> Intel(R) Ethernet Controller XL710 Family
+
+Additional Configurations
+=========================
+
+  Generic Receive Offload (GRO)
+  -----------------------------
+  The driver supports the in-kernel software implementation of GRO.  GRO has
+  shown that by coalescing Rx traffic into larger chunks of data, CPU
+  utilization can be significantly reduced when under large Rx load.  GRO is
+  an evolution of the previously-used LRO interface.  GRO is able to coalesce
+  other protocols besides TCP.  It's also safe to use with configurations that
+  are problematic for LRO, namely bridging and iSCSI.
+
+  Ethtool
+  -------
+  The driver utilizes the ethtool interface for driver configuration and
+  diagnostics, as well as displaying statistical information. The latest
+  ethtool version is required for this functionality.
+
+  The latest release of ethtool can be found from
+  https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/network/ethtool
+
+  Data Center Bridging (DCB)
+  --------------------------
+  DCB configuration is not currently supported.
+
+  FCoE
+  ----
+  Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) hardware offload is not currently
+  supported.
+
+  MAC and VLAN anti-spoofing feature
+  ----------------------------------
+  When a malicious driver attempts to send a spoofed packet, it is dropped by
+  the hardware and not transmitted.  An interrupt is sent to the PF driver
+  notifying it of the spoof attempt.
+
+  When a spoofed packet is detected the PF driver will send the following
+  message to the system log (displayed by  the "dmesg" command):
+
+  Spoof event(s) detected on VF (n)
+
+  Where n=the VF that attempted to do the spoofing.
+
+
+Performance Tuning
+==================
+
+An excellent article on performance tuning can be found at:

+
+
+Known Issues
+============
+
+
+Support
+=======
+
+For general information, go to the Intel support website at:
+
+    http://support.intel.com
+
+or the Intel Wired Networking project hosted by Sourceforge at:
+
+    http://e1000.sourceforge.net
+
+If an issue is identified with the released source code on the supported
+kernel with a supported adapter, email the specific information related
+to the issue to e1000-devel@lists.sourceforge.net and copy
+netdev@vger.kernel.org.
