The tree is at:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile.git net

Chris Metcalf (3):
      net: tilegx driver bugfix (be explicit about percpu queue number)
      tilegx net driver: handle payload data not in frags
      tilegx net: use eth_hw_addr_random(), not random_ether_addr()

These changes look fine, but when I pull from your tree I get tons of
totally unrelated stuff and a merge conflict in this driver.

Can you put together a clean pull against net-next?

The merge conflict was against Joe Perches' bombing of random_ether_addr()
to eth_random_addr().  I left in my change to convert that again to be
eth_hw_addr_random(), which naively seems like a better API, and sets
NET_ADDR_RANDOM, which is presumably a good thing.

I recreated the tree to be branched off of net-next. ( I had originally
created it off of Linus's tree, which in retrospect doesn't make much
sense.)  Please try to pull again - thanks!
