Registering another device with same MAC address (such as TAP, VPN or
DPDK KNI) will confuse the VF autobinding logic.  Restrict the search
to only run if the device is known to be a PCI attached VF.

Pull char/misc driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the bit set of char/misc drivers for 4.19-rc1

  There is a lot here, much more than normal, seems like everyone is
  writing new driver subsystems these days... Anyway, major things here
  are:

   - new FSI driver subsystem, yet-another-powerpc low-level hardware
     bus

   - gnss, finally an in-kernel GPS subsystem to try to tame all of the
     crazy out-of-tree drivers that have been floating around for years,
     combined with some really hacky userspace implementations. This is
     only for GNSS receivers, but you have to start somewhere, and this
     is great to see.

  Other than that, there are new slimbus drivers, new coresight drivers,
  new fpga drivers, and loads of DT bindings for all of these and
  existing drivers.

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  issues"

<title>hv/netvsc: Fix NULL dereference at single queue mode fallback</title>

<content type='text'>
The recent commit 916c5e1413be ("hv/netvsc: fix handling of fallback
to single queue mode") tried to fix the fallback behavior to a single
queue mode, but it changed the function to return zero incorrectly,
while the function should return an object pointer.  Eventually this
leads to a NULL dereference at the callers that expect non-NULL
value.

Fix it by returning the proper net_device object.

<title>hv_netvsc: Add per-cpu ethtool stats for netvsc</title>
<updated>2018-07-30T19:35:04+00:00</updated>

<id>6ae746711263bd6da45f709fdb9f12e4f57e22bd</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch implements following ethtool stats fields for netvsc:
cpu&lt;n&gt;_tx/rx_packets/bytes
cpu&lt;n&gt;_vf_tx/rx_packets/bytes

Corresponding per-cpu counters already exist in current code. Exposing
these counters will help troubleshooting performance issues.

for_each_present_cpu() was used instead of for_each_possible_cpu().
for_each_possible_cpu() would create very long and useless output.
It is still being used for internal buffer, but not for ethtool
output.

There could be an overflow if cpu was added between ethtool
call netvsc_get_sset_count() and netvsc_get_ethtool_stats() and
netvsc_get_strings(). (still safe if cpu was removed)
ethtool makes these three function calls separately.
As long as we use ethtool, I can't see any clean solution.

Currently and in foreseeable short term, Hyper-V doesn't support
cpu hot-plug. Plus, ethtool is for admin use. Unlikely the admin
would perform such combo operations.

Changes in v2:
  - Remove cpp style comment
  - Resubmit after freeze

Changes in v3:
  - Reimplemented with kvmalloc instead of alloc_percpu

Changes in v4:
  - Fixed inconsistent array size
  - Use kvmalloc_array instead of kvmalloc

If out ring is full temporarily and receive completion cannot go out,
we may still need to reschedule napi if certain conditions are met.
Otherwise the napi poll might be stopped forever, and cause network
disconnect.

For most of these calls we can just pass NULL through to the fallback
function as the sb_dev. The only cases where we cannot are the cases where
we might be dealing with either an upper device or a driver that would
have configured things to support an sb_dev itself.

The only driver that has any significant change in this patch set should be
ixgbe as we can drop the redundant functionality that existed in both the
ndo_select_queue function and the fallback function that was passed through
to us.

This patch makes it so that instead of passing a void pointer as the
accel_priv we instead pass a net_device pointer as sb_dev. Making this
change allows us to pass the subordinate device through to the fallback
function eventually so that we can keep the actual code in the
ndo_select_queue call as focused on possible on the exception cases.
