Subject: Re: [PATCH net-next v2 0/4] e1000e: ethtool setfeatures fixes + loopback

Jeff, Bruce,

Please drop this patch series as I was informed that:
 - http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/95175/ already implemented
loopback for ethtool and is under review. Please note, though, that
the version (patch 2) I submitted builds on top of newer net-next
changes
 - Maciej Żenczykowski would prefer not to use the version I sent for
patches 3 and 4, and will provide an improved patch

I will mark the series as rejected on patchwork and will resend patch
1 (fix) as "v3".

My apologies for this hick-up.

Regards,

David Decotigny
