Subject: [net-next 00/13][pull request] Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates

The following series contains updates to ixgb and igb. The ixgb patch
is a trivial fix.  The remaining patches are for igb to do the following:

  - cleanup/consolidate Tx descriptors
  - trivial fix to remove _adv/_ADV since igb uses only advanced
    descriptors
  - performance enhancements to help with  general and routing

This series of igb patches is the first of three to update/cleanup the igb
driver by Alex.  So there are additional patches/changes coming to complete
this work.

The following are changes since commit 765cf9976e937f1cfe9159bf4534967c8bf8eb6d:
  tcp: md5: remove one indirection level in tcp_md5sig_pool
and are available in the git repository at:
  git://github.com/Jkirsher/net-next.git

Alexander Duyck (12):
  igb: Update RXDCTL/TXDCTL configurations
  igb: Update max_frame_size to account for an optional VLAN tag if
    present
  igb: drop support for single buffer mode
  igb: streamline Rx buffer allocation and cleanup
  igb: update ring and adapter structure to improve performance
  igb: Refactor clean_rx_irq to reduce overhead and improve performance
  igb: drop the "adv" off function names relating to descriptors
  igb: Replace E1000_XX_DESC_ADV with IGB_XX_DESC
  igb: Remove multi_tx_table and simplify igb_xmit_frame
  igb: Make Tx budget for NAPI user adjustable
  igb: split buffer_info into tx_buffer_info and rx_buffer_info
  igb: Consolidate creation of Tx context descriptors into a single
    function

Jesse Brandeburg (1):
  ixgb: eliminate checkstack warnings
