Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/3] Control VF link state

Following the RFC sent couple of weeks ago, sending the patches which add API and 
implementation that lets the admin to configure the link state of the VF / SRIOV 
eSwitch vPORT. Basically, it has three states

Auto - VF link state reflects the PF link state (default)

Up - VF link state is up, traffic from VF to VF works even if
the actual PF link is down

Down - VF link state is down, no traffic from/to this VF, can be of
use while configuring the VF

Rony and Or.

changes from the RFC:
 - enhanced the get_vf_config ndo and linklink related code to 
   retrieve the VF link info too
 - same for iproute2


Rony Efraim (2):
  net/core: Add VF link state control
  net/mlx4: Add VF link state support
