Drivers should call the TSO setting helper, GSO is controllable
by user space.

Defining local versions of NAPI_POLL_WEIGHT with the same
values in the drivers just makes refactoring harder.

Pull irq updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Updates for the interrupt subsystem:

  Core:

   - Provide a new interface for affinity hints to provide a separation
     between hint and actual affinity change which has become a hidden
     property of the current interface

   - Fix up the in tree usage of the affinity hint interfaces

  Drivers:

   - No new irqchip drivers!

   - Fix GICv3 redistributor table reservation with RT across kexec

   - Fix GICv4.1 redistributor view of the VPE table across kexec

   - Add support for extra interrupts on spear-shirq

   - Make obtaining some interrupts optional for the Renesas drivers

   - Various cleanups and bug fixes"

As stated in [1], dma_set_mask() with a 64-bit mask never fails if
dev-&gt;dma_mask is non-NULL.
So, if it fails, the 32 bits case will also fail for the same reason.

So if dma_set_mask_and_coherent() succeeds, 'netdev-&gt;features' will have
NETIF_F_HIGHDMA in all cases. Move the assignment of this feature in
be_netdev_init() instead be_probe() which is a much logical place.

Simplify code and remove some dead code accordingly.

The driver uses irq_set_affinity_hint() to update the affinity_hint mask
that is consumed by the userspace to distribute the interrupts. However,
under the hood irq_set_affinity_hint() also applies the provided cpumask
(if not NULL) as the affinity for the given interrupt which is an
undocumented side effect.

To remove this side effect irq_set_affinity_hint() has been marked
as deprecated and new interfaces have been introduced. Hence, replace the
irq_set_affinity_hint() with the new interface irq_update_affinity_hint()
that only updates the affinity_hint pointer.

<title>ethernet: constify references to netdev-&gt;dev_addr in drivers</title>

<id>urn:sha1:766607570becbd26cab6d66a544dd8d0d964df5a</id>
<content type='text'>
This big patch sprinkles const on local variables and
function arguments which may refer to netdev-&gt;dev_addr.

Commit 406f42fa0d3c ("net-next: When a bond have a massive amount
of VLANs...") introduced a rbtree for faster Ethernet address look
up. To maintain netdev-&gt;dev_addr in this tree we need to make all
the writes to it got through appropriate helpers.

Some of the changes here are not strictly required - const
is sometimes cast off but pointer is not used for writing.
It seems like it's still better to add the const in case
the code changes later or relevant -W flags get enabled
for the build.

No functional changes.

'destroy_workqueue()' already drains the queue before destroying it, so
there is no need to flush it explicitly.

Remove the redundant 'flush_workqueue()' calls.

This was generated with coccinelle:
