This series includes update for mlx5e net device driver.
1) From Feras Daoud, Added the support for firmware log tracing,
first by introducing the firmware API needed for the task and then
For each PF do the following:
1- Allocate memory for the tracer strings database and read it from the FW to the SW.
2- Allocate and dma map tracer buffers.
Traces that will be written into the buffer will be parsed as a group
of one or more traces, referred to as trace message. The trace message
represents a C-like printf string.
Once a new trace is available FW will generate an event indicates new trace/s are
available and the driver will parse them and dump them using tracepoints
event tracing
Enable mlx5 fw tracing by:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/mlx5/mlx5_fw/enable
Read traces by:
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
2) From Roi Dayan, Remove redundant WARN when we cannot find neigh entry
3) From Jianbo Liu, TC double vlan support
- Support offloading tc double vlan headers match
- Support offloading double vlan push/pop tc actions
4) From Boris, re-visit UDP GSO, remove the splitting of UDP_GSO_L4 packets
in the driver, and exposes UDP_GSO_L4 as a PARTIAL_GSO feature.

============
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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
