Hi Dave,

This series contains updates to mlx4 driver.
Majority of the patches are small bug fixes. Another patch is to expose through
debugfs some HW resources to be used by external tools.

Patches done against net-next commit 1b13c97: "net/vxlan: Add ethtool drvinfo"

Changes from V0:
- Removed patch "net/mlx4_en: Add debugfs support". Need to find a standard way
  to do it, and no need to delay the other patches.

All applied, thanks.

The first time this series was posted (this is actually v2) I raised an
issue with the changes to interpretation of the VLAN tag in ethtool RX
NFC commands: <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/257392/>.
The semantics are now definitely inconsistent between sfc and mlx4_en.
I asked Alexander what ixgbe (first implementation) does with the upper
4 bits, with the aim that all three implementations should be
consistent, but I haven't had an answer to that yet.

I was hoping you guys would resolve this and post follow-on fixes
if necessary.
