Subject: [net 0/4][pull request] Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-12-03

This series contains updates to ixgbe, i40e/i40evf, MAINTAINERS and e100.txt

Alex provides a fix for ixgbe where enabling SR-IOV and then bringing the
interface up was resulting in the PF MAC addresses getting into a bad state.
The workaround for this issue is to bring up the interface first and then
enable SR-IOV as this will trigger the reset in the existing code.

I clean up legacy license stuff in the e100.txt documentation and then
update the maintainers/reviewers list for our drivers.

Jesse fixes an issue with the i40e/i40evf drivers, where if the driver were
to happen to have a mutex held while the i40e_init_adminq() call was called,
the init_adminq might inadvertently call mutex_init on a lock that was held
which is a violation of the calling semantices.

The following are changes since commit cf18b7788fe1bf99e9c2ab580b065bf2d3cb1a34:
  net: phy: reset only targeted phy
and are available in the git repository at:
