Subject: [net-next 0/7][pull request] Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates

The following series contains updates to ixgbe and skbuff.
The skbuff patch helps reduce the overall size of sk_buff and the
remaining patches are against ixgbe.  They do the following:
 - refactor RSC and address that RSC was not setting GSO size
 - combine post-DMA processing of sk_buff fields into 1 function
 - drop _ADV since all descriptors are advanced
 - improvements in the use of clear and status bits on Rx

The following are changes since commit d9dd966d7fc088a6bed991c2b1e2fba4485e0a31:
  igb: fix warning about unused function
and are available in the git repository at:
  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/net-next master

Alexander Duyck (7):
  ixgbe: Minor refactor of RSC
  ixgbe: Address fact that RSC was not setting GSO size for incoming
    frames
  ixgbe: Let the Rx buffer allocation clear status bits instead of
    cleanup
  ixgbe: Add function for testing status bits in Rx descriptor
  ixgbe: Drop the _ADV of descriptor macros since all ixgbe descriptors
    are ADV
  ixgbe: Combine post-DMA processing of sk_buff fields into single
    function
  skbuff: Move rxhash and vlan_tci to consolidate holes in sk_buff
