Subject: [net 0/3][pull request] Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2014-08-15

This series contains fixes to i40e only.

Anjali provides two fixes for i40e, first adds a check for non-active
VF before sending admin queue messages to the VFS.  This resolves a
potential kernel panic which would happen whenever we got a Tx hang and
there were VFS that were not up or enabled.  The second fix adds
additional checks so that we do try to access a VF that is not up or
enabled which would dereference a null pointer.

Jesse fixes a i40e PTP bug where the hang detection routine was never
being run when PTP was enabled.

The following are changes since commit c9d26423e56ce1ab4d786f92aebecf859d419293:
  Merge tag 'pm+acpi-3.17-rc1-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm
