This series includes updates to mlx5e ethernet netdevice driver:
From Or Gerlitz:
1) Support masks for l3/l4 filters in ethtool flow steering
2) Report checksum unnecessary also when the L3 checksum flag on the
cqe is set and there's no L4 header
3) Allow reporting of checksum unnecessary, using an ethtool private flag.
From Gavi Teitz and Or, VF representors netdevs performance improvements
4) Allow striding RQ in VF representor and bigger RQ size, ~3X performance improvement
5) Enable stateless offloads for VF representor, csum and TSO, 1.5X performance improvement
6) RSS Support for VF representors
6.1) Allow flow table destination fir VF representor steering rule.
6.2) Create RSS flow table per representor netdev
6.3) Expose mlx5e RSS ethtool to be used by representor netdevs
6.4) Enable multi-queue and RSS for VF representors, using mlx5e existing infrastructure
for managing a multi-queue RX RSS tables.
From Alaa Hleihel:
7) Cache the system image guid, The system image guid is a read-only field
