Subject: [PATCH net 0/3] ethtool fix

Hi Dave,

This patchset from Eran contains a fix to ethtool set_channels, where the call
to get_channels with an uninitialized parameter might result in garbage fields.
It also contains two followup changes in our mlx4/mlx5 Eth drivers.

Series generated against net commit:
0faa9cb5b383 net sched actions: fix refcnt when GETing of action after bind

Thanks,
Tariq.

  net/mlx4_en: Remove unnecessary checks when setting num channels
  net/mlx5e: Remove unnecessary checks when setting num channels
