David S. Miller 92dbb332a2 Merge branch 'mvpp2-ucast-filter'
Maxime Chevallier says:

====================
net: mvpp2: Add Unicast filtering capabilities

This series adds unicast filtering support to the Marvell PPv2 controller.

This is implemented using the header parser cababilities of the PPv2,
which allows for generic packet filtering based on matching patterns in
the packet headers.

PPv2 controller only has 256 of these entries, and we need to share them
with other features, such as VLAN filtering.

For each interface, we have 5 entries dedicated to unicast filtering (the
controller's own address, and 4 other), and 21 to multicast filtering.

When this number is reached, the controller switches to unicast or
multicast promiscuous mode.

The first patch reworks the function that adds and removes addresses to the
filter. This is preparatory work to ease UC filter implementation.

The second patch adds the UC filtering feature.

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.
