Merge branch '100GbE' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/next-queue
Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 100GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2018-03-26 This patch series adds the ice driver, which will support the Intel(R) E800 Series of network devices. This is the first phase in the release of this driver where we implement basic transmit and receive. The idea behind the multi-phase release is to aid in code review as well as testing. Subsequent phases will implement advanced features (like SR-IOV, tunnelling, flow director, QoS, etc.) that build upon the previous phase(s). Each phase will be submitted as a patch series. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
