b58515be97 mlx4: fix error path in drivers/net/mlx4/en_rx.c
this warning:

  drivers/net/mlx4/en_rx.c: In function ‘mlx4_en_activate_rx_rings’:
  drivers/net/mlx4/en_rx.c:412: warning: ‘err’ may be used uninitialized in this function

Triggers because 'err' is uninitialized in the following input
conditions: priv->rx_ring_num is zero and mlx4_en_fill_rx_buffers()
fails.

But even if ->rx_ring_num is nonzero, 'err' will be zero if
mlx4_en_fill_rx_buffers() fails and mlx4_en_activate_rx_rings() returns
success - incorrectly.

So it's best to keep the error code uptodate on mlx4_en_fill_rx_buffers()
calls as well.

babcda74e9 drivers/net: Kill now superfluous ->last_rx stores.
The generic packet receive code takes care of setting
netdev->last_rx when necessary, for the sake of the
bonding ARP monitor.

Drivers need not do it any more.

Some cases had to be skipped over because the drivers
were making use of the ->last_rx value themselves.

c27a02cd94 mlx4_en: Add driver for Mellanox ConnectX 10GbE NIC
The Mellanox ConnectX can operate as an InfiniBand adapter, as an
Ethernet NIC, or as a Fibre Channel (FC) HBA.  The kernel has a
low-level driver, mlx4_core, which handles multiplexing access to the
device, and there is also already an InfiniBad driver, mlx4_ib.

This patch adds a new driver, mlx4_en, which implements a standard
Ethernet NIC driver.
