Subject: [net-next-2.6 PATCH 4/7] ixgbe: Improve reset coordination between
	the PF and the VF

From: Greg Rose <gregory.v.rose@...el.com>

Inadequate coordination between the PF driver and the VF driver results
in tx hangs in the VF driver when you perform certain actions that will
lead to a re-init of the PF.  Add feature to notify active VFs when the PF
is about to re-initialize so that the VFs can take appropriate action.
