[PATCH net-next 00/23] Clean driver, module and FW versions

[Leon Romanovsky]

From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@mellanox.com>

Hi,

This is second batch of the series which removes various static versions
in favour of globaly defined Linux kernel version.

The first part with better cover letter can be found here
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200224085311.460338-1-leon@kernel.org

The code is based on
68e2c37690b0 ("Merge branch 'hsr-several-code-cleanup-for-hsr-module'")

and WIP branch is
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/leon/linux-rdma.git/log/?h=ethtool

Thanks

Leon Romanovsky (23):

[PATCH net-next 21/23] net/freescale: Don't set zero if FW not-available in dpaa
