fine-tuning channel
Gentle ping.
Thanks.

> v11->v12:
> - Remove the use of IS_ENABLED(DIMLIB).
> - Update Simon's htmldoc hint.

> v10->v11:
> - Fix and clean up some issues from Kuba, thanks.

> v8->v9:
> - Fix the compilation error of conflicting names of rx_profile in

> v7->v8:
> - Use kmemdup() instead of kzalloc()/memcpy() in dev_dim_profile_init().
>
> v6->v7:
> - A new wrapper struct pointer is used in struct net_device.
> - Add IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_DIMLIB) to avoid compiler warnings.
> - Profile fields changed from u16 to u32.
>
> v5->v6:
> - Place the profile in netdevice to bypass the driver.
> The interaction code of ethtool <-> kernel has not changed at all,
> only the interaction part of kernel <-> driver has changed.
>
> v4->v5:
> - Update some snippets from Kuba.
>
> v3->v4:
> - Some tiny updates and patch 1 only add a new comment.
>
> v2->v3:
> - Break up the attributes to avoid the use of raw c structs.
> - Use per-device profile instead of global profile in the driver.
>
> v1->v2:
> - Use ethtool tool instead of net-sysfs.
>
> Heng Qi (5):
> linux/dim: move useful macros to .h file
> dim: make DIMLIB dependent on NET
> ethtool: provide customized dim profile management
> dim: add new interfaces for initialization and getting results
> virtio-net: support dim profile fine-tuning
