Paolo Abeni 14cd01c28f Merge branch 'fbnic-synchronize-address-handling-with-bmc'
Alexander Duyck says:

====================
fbnic: Synchronize address handling with BMC

The fbnic driver needs to communicate with the BMC if it is operating on
the RMII-based transport (RBT) of the same port the host is on. To enable
this we need to add rules that will route BMC traffic to the RBT/BMC and
the BMC and firmware need to configure rules on the RBT side of the
interface to route traffic from the BMC to the host instead of the MAC.

To enable that this patch set addresses two issues. First it will cause the
TCAM to be reconfigured in the event that the BMC was not previously
present when the driver was loaded, but the FW sends a notification that
the FW capabilities have changed and a BMC w/ various MAC addresses is now
present. Second it adds support for sending a message to the firmware so
that if the host adds additional MAC addresses the FW can be made aware and
route traffic for those addresses from the RBT to the host instead of the
MAC.

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 reStructuredText 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.
