Jacob Keller 28921a0c2f i40e: remove workaround for Open Firmware MAC address 
Since commit b499ffb0a2 ("i40e: Look up MAC address in Open Firmware
or IDPROM"), we've had support for obtaining the MAC address
form Open Firmware or IDPROM.

This code relied on sending the Open Firmware address directly to the
device firmware instead of relying on our MAC/VLAN filter list. Thus,
a work around was introduced in commit b1b15df592 ("i40e: Explicitly
write platform-specific mac address after PF reset")

We refactored the Open Firmware address enablement code in the ill-named
commit 41c4c2b50d ("i40e: allow look-up of MAC address from Open
Firmware or IDPROM")

Since this refactor, we no longer even set I40E_FLAG_PF_MAC. Further, we
don't need this work around, because we actually store the MAC address
as part of the MAC/VLAN filter hash. Thus, we will restore the address
correctly upon reset.

The refactor above failed to revert the workaround, so do that now.

README 

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
