Subject: [PATCH net 0/4] Mellanox driver fixes June 4th, 2013

Hi Dave,

This short series has one bugfix to the adaptive moderation code
and three SRIOV fixes. 

The patch from Jack Morgenstein follows the suggestion made over this thread
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/2569591/ by Ben H. to simply return -EPROBE_DEFER 
when a VF relalizes they can't do their probe now. Other two patches from me treat
issues in the VF and PF driver relating to handling VF MAC addresses.

Series done against net tree, commit 01cb71d2d "net_sched: restore "overhead xxx" handling"

Or.

This is what happens when Jack's patch is applied, so the PCI 
code relalized we ask for deferred probe and things work just OK.

    sufficiently initialized

Or Gerlitz (2):
  net/mlx4_en: Handle unassigned VF MAC address correctly
  net/mlx4_core: Keep VF assigned MAC in the PF admin table
