hi Dave,
Thanks for your reply, I am so sorry to interrupt your work.
Yes, the patch set should be reviewed by all the other developers.
I should not only ask you to review the patch.
I will resend all these patch after 4.6-rc-1 is released.
Thanks.
Daode.

Update to iproute2 utility to support new features in Linux 4.5.
The usual array small documentation changes and bug fixes.
Areas of large changes were BPF and more integration of management
of bridges.

The smc91x driver defines a macro that compares its argument to
itself, apparently to get a true result while using its argument
to avoid a warning about unused local variables.
Unfortunately, this triggers a warning with gcc-6, as the comparison
is obviously useless:
