====================
be2net: patch set
Hi Dave, pls consider applying the following patch-set to the
net-next tree. It has 5 code/style cleanup patches and 4 patches that
add functionality to the driver.
Patch 1 moves routines that were not needed to be in be.h to the respective
src files, to avoid unnecessary compilation.
Patch 2 replaces (1 << x) with BIT(x) macro
Patch 3 refactors code that checks if a FW flash file is compatible
with the adapter. The code is now refactored into 2 routines, the first one
gets the file type from the image file and the 2nd routine checks if the
file type is compatible with the adapter.
Patch 4 adds compatibility checks for flashing a FW image on the new
Skyhawk P2 HW revision.
Patch 5 adds support for a new "offset based" flashing scheme, wherein
the driver informs the FW of the offset at which each component in the flash
file is to be flashed at. This helps flashing components that were
previously not recognized by the running FW.
Patch 6 simplifies the be_cmd_rx_filter() routine, by passing to it the
filter flags already used in the FW cmd, instead of the netdev flags that
were converted to the FW-cmd flags.
Patch 7 introduces helper routines in be_set_rx_mode() and be_vid_config()
to improve code readability.
Patch 8 adds processing of port-misconfig async event sent by the FW.
Patch 9 removes unnecessary swapping of a field in the TX desc.
