Greetings:

Welcome to v3.

v1 was an RFC [1] for just e1000e, v2 was an RFC [2] for both e1000e and
e1000.

This series adds support for netdev-genl to e1000e and e1000.

Supporting this API in these drivers is very useful as commonly used
virtualization software, like VMWare Fusion and VirtualBox, expose e1000e
and e1000 NICs to VMs.

Developers who work on user apps in VMs may find themselves in need of
access to this API to build, test, or run CI on their apps. This is
especially true for apps which use epoll based busy poll and rely on
userland mapping NAPI IDs to queues.

I've tested both patches; please see the commit messages for more details.

Thanks,
Joe
