Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
1) Stretch ACKs can kill performance with Reno and CUBIC congestion
control, largely due to LRO and GRO. Fix from Neal Cardwell.
2) Fix userland breakage because we accidently emit zero length netlink
messages from the bridging code. From Roopa Prabhu.
3) Carry handling in generic csum_tcpudp_nofold is broken, fix from
Karl Beldan.
4) Remove bogus dev_set_net() calls from CAIF driver, from Nicolas
Dichtel.
5) Make sure PPP deflation never returns a length greater then the
output buffer, otherwise we overflow and trigger skb_over_panic().
Fix from Florian Westphal.
6) COSA driver needs VIRT_TO_BUS Kconfig dependencies, from Arnd
Bergmann.
7) Don't increase route cached MTU on datagram too big ICMPs. From Li
Wei.
8) Fix error path leaks in nf_tables, from Pablo Neira Ayuso.
9) Fix bitmask handling regression in netlink that broke things like
acpi userland tools. From Pablo Neira Ayuso.
10) Wrong header pointer passed to param_type2af() in SCTP code, from
Saran Maruti Ramanara.
11) Stacked vlans not handled correctly by vlan_get_protocol(), from
Toshiaki Makita.
12) Add missing DMA memory barrier to xgene driver, from Iyappan
Subramanian.
13) Fix crash in rate estimators, from Eric Dumazet.
14) We've been adding various workarounds, one after another, for the
change which added the per-net tcp_sock. It was meant to reduce
socket contention but added lots of problems.
Reduce this instead to a proper per-cpu socket and that rids us of
all the daemons.
From Eric Dumazet.
15) Fix memory corruption and OOPS in mlx4 driver, from Jack
Morgenstein.
16) When we disabled UFO in the virtio_net device, it introduces some
serious performance regressions. The orignal problem was IPV6
fragment ID generation, so fix that properly instead. From Vlad
Yasevich.
17) sr9700 driver build breaks on xtensa because it defines macros with
the same name as those used by the arch code. Use more unique
names. From Chen Gang.
18) Fix endianness in new virio 1.0 mode of the vhost net driver, from
Michael S Tsirkin.
19) Several sysctls were setting the maxlen attribute incorrectly, from
Sasha Levin.
20) Don't accept an FQ scheduler quantum of zero, that leads to crashes.
From Kenneth Klette Jonassen.
21) Fix dumping of non-existing actions in the packet scheduler
classifier. From Ignacy Gawędzki.
22) Return the write work_done value when doing TX work in the qlcnic
driver.
23) ip6gre_err accesses the info field with the wrong endianness, from
Sabrina Dubroca.
