Subject: [net 0/4][pull request] Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2016-07-14

This series contains fixes to i40e and ixgbe.

Alex fixes issues found in i40e_rx_checksum() which was broken, where the
checksum was being returned valid when it was not.

Kiran fixes a bug which was found when we abruptly remove a cable which
caused a panic.  Set the VSI broadcast promiscuous mode during VSI add
sequence and prevents adding MAC filter if specified MAC address is
broadcast.

Paolo Abeni fixes a bug by returning the actual work done, capped to
weight - 1, since the core doesn't allow to return the full budget when
the driver modifies the NAPI status.

Guilherme Piccoli fixes an issue where the q_vector initialization
routine sets the affinity _mask of a q_vector based on v_idx value.
This means a loop iterates on v_idx, which is an incremental value, and
the cpumask is created based on this value.  This is a problem in
systems with multiple logical CPUs per core (like in SMT scenarios).
Changed the way q_vector's affinity_mask is created to resolve the issue.

The following are changes since commit 005db31d5f5f7c31cfdc43505d77eb3ca5cf8ec6:
  bonding: set carrier off for devices created through netlink
