40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2017-06-01
This series contains updates to i40e, i40evf and the "new" AVF virtchnl.
This is the introduction of the Intel(R) Ethernet Adaptive Virtual
Function driver code and device ID, as presented at the NetDEV 1.2
conference in 2016.

The idea is to convert the interface between the i40evf driver
and the parent i40e PF driver to be generic, as the i40evf driver
should in the future be able to run on top of other Intel PF
drivers, and negotiate any features beyond a "base expected" set.
