Jeff Kirsher says:
====================
This series contains updates to igb and ixgbe. Most of the changes
are against igb, except for one patch against ixgbe.
There are 3 igb fixes from Carolyn which were reported by Dan
Carpenter which resolve issues found in the get_i2c_client(). Alex
does some cleanup of the igb driver to match similar functionality
in ixgbe on transmit. Alex also makes it so that we can enable the use
of build_skb for cases where jumbo frames are disabled. The advantage
to this is that we do not have to perform a memcpy to populate the header
and as a result we see a significant performance improvement.
Akeem provides 4 patches to initialize function pointers and do a
re-factoring of the function pointers in igb_get_variants() to assist
with driver debugging.
The ixgbe patch comes from Emil to reshuffle the switch/case structure
of the flag assignment to allow for the flags to be set for each MAC
type separately. This is needed for new hardware that does not have feature
parity with older hardware.
v2: updated patches 4 & 5 based on feedback from Ben Hutchings and Eric
Dumazet

Following patch adds GRE protocol offload handler so that
skb_gso_segment() can segment GRE packets.
SKB GSO CB is added to keep track of total header length so that
skb_segment can push entire header. e.g. in case of GRE, skb_segment
need to push inner and outer headers to every segment.
New NETIF_F_GRE_GSO feature is added for devices which support HW
GRE TSO offload. Currently none of devices support it therefore GRE GSO
always fall backs to software GSO.

The patch also adds a couple of fixes
- For the 57766 and non Ax versions of 57765, bootcode needs to setup
the PCIE Fast Training Sequence (FTS) value to prevent transmit hangs.
Unfortunately, it does not have enough room in the selfboot case (i.e.
devices with no NVRAM). The driver needs to implement this.
- For performance reasons, the 2k DMA engine mode on the 57766 should
be enabled and dma size limited to 2k for standard sized packets.

After reviewing the igb and ixgbe code I realized there are a few issues in
how the code is structured. Specifically we are not checking the size of the
buffers being used in transmits and we are not using the same value to
determine when to stop or start a Tx queue. As such the code is prone to be
buggy.
This patch makes it so that we have one value DESC_NEEDED that we will use for
starting and stopping the queue. In addition we will check the size of
buffers being used when setting up a transmit so as to avoid a possible buffer
overrun if we were to receive a frame with a block of data larger than 32K in
skb->data.

Adding the flag to mac80211 already without testing was
clearly a mistake, one that we now pay for by having to
reserve bit 13 forever. The problem is cfg80211 doesn't
allow capability/rate changes for station entries that
were added unassociated, so the station entries cannot
be set up properly when marked associated.
Change the NL80211_FEATURE_FULL_AP_CLIENT_STATE value
to make it clear to userspace implementations that all
current kernels don't actually support it, even though
the previous bit is set, and of course also remove the
flag from mac80211 until we test and fix the issues.

The information of the peer's capabilities is required for the driver
to perform TDLS Peer UAPSD operations. This information of the peer is
passed by the supplicant using NL80211_CMD_SET_STATION command. This
commit enhances the function nl80211_set_station to pass this
information of the peer to the driver in case this command is used
with the TDLS peer STA.
In addition, make the HT/VHT capability configuration handled more
consistently for other STA cases (reject both instead of just HT).

A while ago, I made the mac80211 station code never change
the channel type after association. This solved a number of
issues but is ultimately wrong, we should react if the AP
changes the HT operation IE and switches bandwidth. One of
the issues is that we associate as HT40 capable, but if the
AP ever switches to 40 MHz we won't be able to receive such
frames because we never set our channel to 40 MHz.
This addresses this and VHT operation changes. If there's a
change that is incompatible with our setup, e.g. if the AP
decides to change the channel entirely (and for some reason
we still hear the beacon) we'll just disconnect.

For HT and VHT the current bandwidth can change,
add the function ieee80211_vif_change_bandwidth()
to take care of this. It returns a failure if the
new bandwidth isn't compatible with the existing
channel context, the caller has to handle that.
When it happens, also inform the driver that the
bandwidth changed for this virtual interface (no
drivers would actually care today though.)
Changing to/from HT/VHT isn't allowed though.

Having HT/VHT operation IEs but not capability IEs
leads to a strange situation where we configure the
channel to an HT or VHT bandwidth and then can't
actually use it. Prevent this by checking that the
HT and VHT capability IEs are present as well as
the operation IEs; if not, disable HT and/or VHT.

In beacons and association response frames an AP may include an

In case of connection, the station data is initialised from
the beacon/probe response first and then updated from the
association response. If the latter is different we update

this way, set the station data properly with data from the
association response before initializing rate control.
Also simplify the code by passing the station pointer.

For VHT, many more bandwidth changes are possible. As a first
step, stop toggling the IEEE80211_HT_CAP_SUP_WIDTH_20_40 flag
in the HT capabilities and instead introduce a bandwidth field
indicating the currently usable bandwidth to transmit to the
station. Of course, make all drivers use it.
To achieve this, make ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() get
the station as an argument, rather than the new capabilities,
so it can set up the new bandwidth field.
If the station is a VHT station and VHT bandwidth is in use,
also set the bandwidth accordingly.
Doing this allows us to get rid of the supports_40mhz flag as
the HT capabilities now reflect the true capability instead of
the current setting.
While at it, also fix ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() to not
ignore HT cap overrides when MCS TX isn't supported (not that it
really happens...)

Like with HT, make things a bit simpler in future patches by

Since no driver calls the TKIP functions from interrupt
