[PATCH net-next-2.6 0/8] sfc and ethtool changes for 2.6.37

[Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>]

This series adds Ethernet-level filtering and explicit filter clearing
to the ethtool RX n-tuple interface, and implements it in the sfc
driver.

There is a cleanup patch on the end which is preparation for the
following RFC patch series but is worthwhile anyway.

Ben.
