Linus Torvalds 3c7a9f32f9 Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net
Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) In order to avoid problems in the future, make cgroup bpf overriding
    explicit using BPF_F_ALLOW_OVERRIDE. From Alexei Staovoitov.

 2) LLC sets skb->sk without proper skb->destructor and this explodes,
    fix from Eric Dumazet.

 3) Make sure when we have an ipv4 mapped source address, the
    destination is either also an ipv4 mapped address or
    ipv6_addr_any(). Fix from Jonathan T. Leighton.

 4) Avoid packet loss in fec driver by programming the multicast filter
    more intelligently. From Rui Sousa.

 5) Handle multiple threads invoking fanout_add(), fix from Eric
    Dumazet.

 6) Since we can invoke the TCP input path in process context, without
    BH being disabled, we have to accomodate that in the locking of the
    TCP probe. Also from Eric Dumazet.

 7) Fix erroneous emission of NETEVENT_DELAY_PROBE_TIME_UPDATE when we
    aren't even updating that sysctl value. From Marcus Huewe.

 8) Fix endian bugs in ibmvnic driver, from Thomas Falcon.

[ This is the second version of the pull that reverts the nested
  rhashtable changes that looked a bit too scary for this late in the
  release  - Linus ]

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
