Merge branch 'mlx4'
Amir Vadai says: ==================== net, net/mlx4: Add sysfs file for port number Modern distro's are using biosdevname to rename interface to a name based on slot/port number. biosdevname can't get the port number of devices that have multiple ports that share the same PCI function. This patch adds a sysfs file under: /sys/devices/.../net/<interface>/dev_port, that contains the port number (0 based) - to be used by biosdevname. Also, dev_id was wrongly used in mlx4_en driver - added a patch that fix it. This patch was tested and applied over commit 51adfcc "net: bcmgenet: remove unused bh_lock member" ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
