Subject: [net-2.6 PATCH 1/2] ixgbe: Priority tag FIP frames

From: Robert Love <robert.w.love@...el.com>

Currently FIP (FCoE Initialization Protocol) frames
are going untagged. This causes various problems
with FCFs (switches) that have negotiated a priority
over dcbx. This patch tags FIP frames with the same
priority as the FCoE frames.
