Hi David,

This patch set contains 2 driver fixes to a Lancer HW issue and a fix
to a double free bug. Pls apply to the "net" tree. Thanks!

Patch 1 now enables filters only after creating RXQs. This is done as 
HW issues were observed on Lancer adapters if filters
(flags, mac addrs etc) are enabled *before* creating RXQs. This patch
changes the driver design by enabling filters in be_open() --
instead of be_setup() -- after RXQs are created and buffers posted.

Patch 2 fixes an RX stall issue that was seen on Lancer adapters when
RXQs are destroyed while they are in an "out of buffer" state.
This patch fixes this issue by posting 64 buffers to each RXQ before
destroying them in the close path. This is done after ensuring that no
more new packets are selected for transfer to the RXQs by disabling
interface filters.

Patch 3 protects eqo->affinity_mask variable from being freed twice and
resulting in a crash.  It's now freed only when EQs haven't yet been
destroyed.

Hi David, this patch set includes 3 bug fixes to the be2net driver.

Patch 1 fixes a vlan isolation issue with VFs. When a VF is placed in
promiscous mode, it could receive packets belonging to any vlan, as
the PF driver grants vlan promisc capability to VFs. The PF
driver now disables the vlan promisc capability for VFs to fix this
problem.

Patch 2 fixes the call to MODIFY_EQ_DELAY FW cmd to not include more
than 8 EQs per cmd. The FW is not capable of handling more than 8 EQs
per cmd.

Patch 3 fixes an EEH error detection issue. On Power platforms,
when an EEH error occurs, the slot disconnect state is more reliably
detected via an MMIO read compared to a config read. So, the error
register reads that occur every second are now done via MMIO.

Pls apply this patch set to the "net" tree. Thanks!

Suresh Reddy (2):
  be2net: restrict MODIFY_EQ_DELAY cmd to a max of 8 EQs
  be2net: use PCI MMIO read instead of config read for errors

  be2net: Prevent VFs from enabling VLAN promiscuous mode
