[luca.boccassi@gmail.com]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to LTS release 16.11.4

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 11/01/17. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Thanks.

Kind regards,
Luca Boccassi

Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx5: fix clang build

[ upstream commit 90260d577b61685365b7cf1a6151b9ed6b108f2d ]

On redhat 7.2 clang reports the following error:
   CC mlx5_rxmode.o
 /drivers/net/mlx5/mlx5_ethdev.c:820:32: error: field 'edata' with
 variable sized type 'struct ethtool_link_settings' not at the end
 of a struct or class is a GNU extension
 [-Werror,-Wgnu-variable-sized-type-not-at-end]
      struct ethtool_link_settings edata;

Use alternative approach to reserve buffer space on the stack.

Fixes: ef09a7fc7620 ("net/mlx5: fix inconsistent link status query")
