Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/4] Mellanox driver update Jul-22-2014

Hi,

This patchset contains a fix by Eyal to fix a bug in mlx4_en with bonding
alb/tlb mode.
The second patch, by me, is an ethtool private flag that enable turning off the
BlueFlame hardware feature.
The last two patches, introduce a new low memory profile for mlx4_en and
mlx4_core. This mode is useful when running from a limited resources
environment, like kdump. This will reduce the memory consumed by both drivers
from more than 100M to ~30M.

This patchset was applied and tested on commit 575a193 ("net: mvpp2: Fix error
return code in mvpp2_probe")
