Hi All,

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1219619

Intel has advised that we pick up the following igb driver patches from
net-next for Saucy.  These patches provide support for their Avoton
platform as well as providing some additional bug fixes.  There are 20
patches total.  All are clean cherry-picks from net-next.  I anticipate
these to land in the upstream v3.12 kernel.

I have built and smoke tested these patches on local Intel boxes that I
have access to.  There were no signs of regression, however these boxes
do not leverage the igb driver.  Brad Figg however had access to kit in
the lab which does leverage the igb driver.  He also tested and
confirmed there were no signs of regression as well.  Please consider
picking these up for Saucy.

Anyone else interested in testing can do so using the test kernels at
the following location:

Thanks,
Leann
