How is this different from the patchset Igal posted 7 hours earlier?

Please don't use the chained reply option in git send-email (and the 
patches are in the wrong order, which makes the chained reply 
especially bad).

I don't see any mention of a dependency on the qbman patches.
Where is the actual ethernet driver -- the part that sends and 
receives packets?
