Ursula Braun fe94e2e0a6 qeth: exploit source MAC address for inbound layer3 packets
OSA-devices operating in layer3 mode offer adding of the source MAC
address to the QDIO header of inbound packets. The qeth driver can
exploit this functionality to replace FAKELL-entries in the ethernet
header of received packets.

Martin Schwidefsky 6bcac508fb [S390] service level interface.
Add a new proc interface /proc/service_levels that allows any code
to report a relevant service level, e.g. the microcode level of
devices, the service level of the hypervisor, etc.

Frank Blaschka 683d718a89 [S390] qeth: preallocated qeth header for hiper socket
For hiper socket devices this patch will economize the reallocation
of the tx skb data segment by allocating separate memory for the qdio
transport information (qeth header).

Load balancing bonding queries the speed of the slave interfaces.
To support a bond consisting of different slave speeds we have to
report the speed by ethtool settings.
