[SRU][Bionic][PATCH 0/3] Fixes for LP:1768143

[Joseph Salisbury]

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1768143

== SRU Justification ==
Recently, a couple of fixes went in vmxnet3 driver related to LRO, transmit
reset and rxvlan disabled fix. These fixes are being requested in 
Bionic and Xenial.

The Xenial patches are slightly different, so they will be SRU'd
separatly.

A backport was needed to update version info in vmxnet3_int.h

== Fixes ==
7a4c003d6921 ("vmxnet3: avoid xmit reset due to a race in vmxnet3)"
034f40579389 ("vmxnet3: use correct flag to indicate LRO feature")
65ec0bd1c7c1 ("vmxnet3: fix incorrect dereference when rxvlan is disabled")

== Regression Potential ==
Low.  Limited to vmxnet3 driver.

== Test Case ==
A test kernel was built with these patches and tested by the original bug reporter.
The bug reporter states the test kernel resolved the bug.
