This series contains updates to ixgbevf and igb.
The ixgbevf calls to pci_disable_msix() and to free the msix_entries
memory should not occur if device open fails. Instead they should be
called during device driver removal to balance with the call to
pci_enable_msix() and the call to allocate msix_entries memory
during the device probe and driver load.
The remaining 4 of 5 igb patches are simple 1-3 line patches to fix
several issues such as possible null pointer dereference, PHC stopping
on max frequency, make sensor info static and SR-IOV initialization
reordering.
The remaining igb patch to fix anti-spoofing config fixes a problem

For 82576 MAC type, max_adj is reported as 1000000000 ppb. However, if
this value is passed to igb_ptp_adjfreq_82576, incvalue overflows out of
INCVALUE_82576_MASK, resulting in setting of zero TIMINCA.incvalue, stopping
the PHC (instead of going at twice the nominal speed).
Fix the advertised max_adj value to the largest value hardware can handle.
As there is no min_adj value available (-max_adj is used instead), this will
also prevent stopping the clock intentionally. It's probably not a big deal,
other igb MAC types don't support stopping the clock, either.

The max_vfs= option has always been self limiting to the number of VFs
supported by the device. fa44f2f1 added SR-IOV configuration via
sysfs, but in the process broke this self correction factor. The
failing path is:
igb_probe
igb_sw_init
if (max_vfs > 7) {
adapter->vfs_allocated_count = 7;
...
igb_probe_vfs
igb_enable_sriov(, max_vfs)
if (num_vfs > 7) {
err = -EPERM;
...
This leaves vfs_allocated_count = 7 and vf_data = NULL, so we bomb out
when igb_probe finally calls igb_reset. It seems like a really bad
idea, and somewhat pointless, to set vfs_allocated_count separate from
vf_data, but limiting max_vfs is enough to avoid the null pointer.

When the ixgbevf driver is opened the request to allocate MSIX irq
vectors may fail. In that case the driver will call ixgbevf_down()
which will call ixgbevf_irq_disable() to clear the HW interrupt
registers and calls synchronize_irq() using the msix_entries pointer in
the adapter structure. However, when the function to request the MSIX
irq vectors failed it had already freed the msix_entries which causes
an OOPs from using the NULL pointer in synchronize_irq().
The calls to pci_disable_msix() and to free the msix_entries memory
should not occur if device open fails. Instead they should be called
during device driver removal to balance with the call to
pci_enable_msix() and the call to allocate msix_entries memory

commit bd329e1 ("net: cdc_ncm: do not bind to NCM compatible MBIM devices")
introduced a new policy, preferring MBIM for dual NCM/MBIM functions if
the cdc_mbim driver was enabled. This caused a regression for users
wanting to use NCM.
Devices implementing NCM backwards compatibility according to section
3.2 of the MBIM v1.0 specification allow either NCM or MBIM on a single
USB function, using different altsettings. The cdc_ncm and cdc_mbim
drivers will both probe such functions, and must agree on a common
policy for selecting either MBIM or NCM. Until now, this policy has
been set at build time based on CONFIG_USB_NET_CDC_MBIM.
Use a module parameter to set the system policy at runtime, allowing the
user to prefer NCM on systems with the cdc_mbim driver.

commit bd877e4 ("net: qmi_wwan: use a single bind function for
all device types") made Gobi 1K devices fail probing.
Using the number of endpoints in the default altsetting to decide
whether the function use one or two interfaces is wrong. Other
altsettings may provide more endpoints.
With Gobi 1K devices, USB interface #3's altsetting is 0 by default, but
altsetting 0 only provides one interrupt endpoint and is not sufficent
for QMI. Altsetting 1 provides all 3 endpoints required for qmi_wwan
and works with QMI. Gobi 1K layout for intf#3 is:
Interface Descriptor: 255/255/255
bInterfaceNumber 3
bAlternateSetting 0
Endpoint Descriptor: Interrupt IN
Interface Descriptor: 255/255/255
bInterfaceNumber 3
bAlternateSetting 1
Endpoint Descriptor: Interrupt IN
Endpoint Descriptor: Bulk IN
Endpoint Descriptor: Bulk OUT
Prior to commit bd877e4, we would call usbnet_get_endpoints
before giving up finding enough endpoints. Removing the early
endpoint number test and the strict functional descriptor
requirement allow qmi_wwan_bind to continue until
usbnet_get_endpoints has made the final attempt to collect
endpoints. This restores the behaviour from before commit
bd877e4 without losing the added benefit of using a single bind
function.
The driver has always required a CDC Union functional descriptor
for two-interface functions. Using the existence of this
descriptor to detect two-interface functions is the logically
correct method.

Commit d13ba512cb ("tg3: Remove

removing some dead code. One effect of this change was that the
advertisement register would not be updated if autoneg is turned off.
This exposed a bug on the 5715 device w.r.t linking. The 5715 defaults
to advertise only 10Mb Full duplex. But with autoneg disabled, it needs
the configured speed enabled in the advertisement register to link up.
This patch adds the work around to advertise all speeds on the 5715 when
autoneg is disabled.

Using TX push when notifying the NIC of multiple new descriptors in
the ring will very occasionally cause the TX DMA engine to re-use an
old descriptor. This can result in a duplicated or partly duplicated
packet (new headers with old data), or an IOMMU page fault. This does
not happen when the pushed descriptor is the only one written.
TX push also provides little latency benefit when a packet requires
more than one descriptor.
