Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/4] Altera Triple Speed Ethernet (TSE) Driver

This series of patches addresses a handful of issues found in testing
and reported by users of the Altera Triple Speed Ethernet soft IP.

The patches address the following issues (in summary)

1) The SGDMA soft IP was found to incorrectly process receive packets
   when the target physical address of the receive buffer was on
   a boundary that's not 32-bit aligned. One of the patches addresses
   this issue.
2) The pause quanta was not being set by the driver, one patch of this
   series sets the pause quanta to the IEEE defined default value
   since the hardware reset value is 0.
3) An issue in a error recovery path of the probe routine caused a 
   kernel panic in the event a phy was probed and could not be found.
   A patch addresses this issue. 
4) A change was made to the driver name for Ethtool support, and 
   comments added to support an addition to Ethtool to support
   the Altera Triple Speed Ethernet controller.

If you find this patch series acceptable, please consider this series
for inclusion when possible. 

Thank you, 

Vince
