+* **ixgbe/base: Fixed TX hang for CEE mode configuration.**
+
+  Credit_refill and credit_max could be zero for a TC and that
+  is causing TX hang for CEE mode configuration, so to fix that
+  have a min credit assigned to a TC.
+
+* **ixgbe/base: Fixed the invalid default MDIO clock speed.**
+
+  The x550 MDIO clock speed must be configured prior to first MDIO
+  read or write. The default MDIO clock speed is not valid, therefore
+  the driver is configuring a valid speed prior to reading the copper
+  PHY device id.
+
+* **ixgbe/base: Fixed subtle semaphore error in the CS4227 reset flow.**
+
+* **ixgbe/base: Removed driver config of KX4 PHY.**
+  The KX4 PHY will be configured by the NVM image. The driver
+  had been overwriting this config.
+
+* **ixgbe/base: Avoid needless PHY access on copper phys.**
+  Avoid a needless PHY access on copper phys to save the 10ms wait
+  time for each PHY access. A helper function is introduced to
+  actually do the register access and process the contents.
+
+* **ixgbe/base: Removed duplicate setting for fdir no match drop.**
+
+  Do not set FDIRCTRL.DROP_NO_MATCH in ixgbe_init_fdir_perfect_82599(),
+  this bit is already set in ixgbe_set_fdir_drop_queue_82599() which
+  makes more sense for drivers that call that function.
+  This resolves an issue where packets were being dropped when switching
+  to perfect filters mode.
+
+* **ixgbe/base: Always turn PHY power on when requested.**
+
+  Instead of not defining the callback for set_phy_power when
+  manageability is enabled, put the check in the set_phy_power
+  function so that only turning the power off is conditional on
+  management, but not turning the PHY on.
+
+* **ixgbe/base: Set VF mac address only when acked by PF.**
+
+  Resolve an issue where VF mac address is zeroed out in cases where
+  the VF driver is loaded while the PF interface is down.
+  The solution is to only set it when we get an ACK from the PF.
