Edwin Peer dd85fc0ab5 bnxt_en: allow promiscuous mode for trusted VFs
Firmware previously only allowed promiscuous mode for VFs associated with
a default VLAN. It is now possible to enable promiscuous mode for a VF
having no VLAN configured provided that it is trusted. In such cases the
VF will see all packets received by the PF, irrespective of destination
MAC or VLAN.

Note, it is necessary to query firmware at the time of bnxt_promisc_ok()
instead of in bnxt_hwrm_func_qcfg() because the trusted status might be
altered by the PF after the VF has been configured. This check must now
also be deferred because the firmware call sleeps.

README

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
