[Xen-devel] [xen/stable-2.6.32.x PATCH 0/5] SR-IOV: Backport VF MAC and VLAN configuration to 2.6.32.x

["Rose, Gregory V" <gregory.v.rose@xxxxxxxxx>]

This series of patches is a back port of patches originally inluded
in the Linux 2.6.34 kernel to the xen/2.6.32.x branch.  Authors of
the original patches are CC'd.

The purpose of the patches is to allow configuration of SR-IOV virtual
function MAC address and VLAN ID via the physical function driver in
those drivers that support SR-IOV and export the required netdev ops
functions.

The commits from the original patches in the Linux 2.6.34 kernel git
logs are:
