Re: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH 0/4] update ixgbe base driver to version 2017-03-29

["Dai, Wei" <wei.dai@intel.com>]

Hi, Ferruh

The first patch is to align a fix in firmware.
The second is to fix the miss of support of 2.5G PHY which is also needed by some customers.
The third is to fix LED support on MAC X550em/X557.

We have just verified them with fixed firmware.
So if it is accepted, some customers can get these support.

Thanks & Best Regards
-Wei
