====================
net: stmmac: general fixes for Ethernet functionality
1/5: It ensures that the previous value of GMAC_VLAN_TAG register is
read first before for updating the register.
2/5: Similar to 2/6 patch but it is a fix for XGMAC_VLAN_TAG register
as requested by Jose Abreu.
3/5: It ensures the GMAC IP v4.xx and above behaves correctly to:-
ip link set <devname> multicast off|on
4/5: Added similar IFF_MULTICAST flag for xgmac2, similar to 4/6.
5/5: It ensures PCI platform data is using plat->phy_interface.
Changes from v4:-
patch 1/6 - this patch is dropped now and will take the input on
handling return value from netif_set_real_num_rx|
tx_queues() in future patch series.
v3:-
patch 1/6 - add rtnl_lock() and rtnl_unlock() for stmmac_hw_setup()
called inside stmmac_resume()
patch 3/6 - Added new patch to fix XGMAC_VLAN_TAG register writting
v2:-
patch 1/5 - added control for rtnl_lock() & rtnl_unlock() to ensure
they are used forstmmac_resume()
patch 4/5 - added IFF_MULTICAST flag check for xgmac to ensure
multicast works correctly.
v1:-
- Drop v1 patches (1/7, 3/7 & 4/7) that are not valid.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
