This patch adds the infrastructure to the output path to pass an skb

to l3mdev_ip{6}_rcv in the receive path and is the basis for removing
the existing hook that returns the vrf dst on the fib lookup.

Add l3mdev hook to set FLOWI_FLAG_SKIP_NH_OIF flag and update oif/iif
in flow struct if its oif or iif points to a device enslaved to an L3
Master device. Only 1 needs to be converted to match the l3mdev FIB
rule. This moves the flow adjustment for l3mdev to a single point
catching all lookups. It is redundant for existing hooks (those are
removed in later patches) but is needed for missed lookups such as
PMTU updates.

Mellanox 100G mlx5 seamless error recovery
This series from Mohamad improves the driver load/unload flows
to seamlessly handle pci errors and device internal errors recovery
reset flows.
Current pci and internal error handling is too heavy and is done
with a full restart of the driver by unregistering mlx5 interfaces
(mlx5e netedevs and mlx5_ib) which will cause losing all the current
interfaces and mlx5 core configurations.
To improve this, we add new callback functions of mlx5 interface
object (attach/detach) to be called upon reset flows when errors are
detected rather than calling register and unregister interfaces.
On their side, interfaces such as (mlx5e and mlx5_ib) can choose to implement
those callback, if not, the old heavy reset will be called for that interface.
For non-interface mlx5 modules such as sriov and eswitch, we refactored
and reorganized the code in a way that the software state objects are created
only once on driver load. Those software state objects are kept upon reset recovery
flows and only freed once on driver unload. On seamless soft reset flows, only
hardware resources are released on stop and re-allocated on start according to the
current soft state.
In this series only mlx5e interface implements attach/detach callbacks
so that the netdevice will be kept alive on reset. On detach only hardware resources
are released and the netdevice will be marked as detached to the stack. Once
attached again it will re-allocate the hardware resources according to the current
netdevice state, and all the configurations and the software state will be kept or restored
after recovery.
Note: I will be out of office all next week, in case of any updates
or V2 is required, Tariq will post the new series, I hope it is ok.

Optimisation of fs_enet ethernet driver
This set optimises the freescale fs_enet ethernet driver:

interrupts
2/ Do not unmap DMA when packets len is below copybreak, otherwise there
is no benefit in copying the skb instead of allocating a new one
3/ Make copybreak value configurable as the optimised value is not the
same on all targets

Measurement shows that on a MPC8xx running at 132MHz, the optimal
limit is 112:
* 114 bytes packets are processed in 147 TB ticks with higher copybreak
* 114 bytes packets are processed in 148 TB ticks with lower copybreak
* 128 bytes packets are processed in 154 TB ticks with higher copybreak
* 128 bytes packets are processed in 148 TB ticks with lower copybreak
* 238 bytes packets are processed in 172 TB ticks with higher copybreak
* 238 bytes packets are processed in 148 TB ticks with lower copybreak
However it might be different on other processors
and/or frequencies. So it is useful to make it configurable.

When the length of the packet is below the defined copybreak limit,
the received packet is copied into a newly allocated skb in order
to reuse the skb. This is only interesting if it allow us to avoid
a new DMA mapping. We shall therefore not DMA unmap and remap the
skb->data. Instead, we invalidate the cache
with dma_sync_single_for_cpu() once the received data has been
copied into the new skb.
The following measures have been obtained on a mpc885 running at 132Mhz.
Measurement is done using the timebase with packets sent to the target
with 'ping -s 1' (packet len is 60):
* Without this patch: 182 TB ticks
* With this patch: 143 TB ticks
As a comparison, if we set the copybreak limit to 0, then we get
148 TB ticks. It means that without this patch, duration is even
worse when copying received data to a new skb instead of
allocating a new skb for next packet to be received

Initially, a NAPI TX routine has been implemented separately from
NAPI RX, as done on the freescale/gianfar driver.
By merging NAPI RX and NAPI TX, we reduce the amount of TX completion
interrupts.
Handling of the budget in association with TX interrupts is based on
indications provided at https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/networking/napi
We never proceed more than the complete TX ring on a single run.
At the same time, we fix an issue in the handling of fep->tx_free:
It is only when fep->tx_free goes up to MAX_SKB_FRAGS that
we need to wake up the queue. There is no need to call
netif_wake_queue() at every packet successfully transmitted.

net/sched: ip tunnel metadata set/release/classify by using TC
This patchset introduces ip tunnel manipulation support using the TC subsystem.
In the decap flow, it enables the user to redirect packets from a shared tunnel
device and classify by outer and inner headers. The outer headers are extracted
from the metadata and used by the flower filter. A new action act_tunnel_key,
releases the metadata.
In the encap flow, act_tunnel_key creates a metadata object to be used by the
shared tunnel device. The actual redirection to the tunnel device is done using
act_mirred.
For example:
$ tc qdisc add dev vnet0 ingress
$ tc filter add dev vnet0 protocol ip parent ffff: \
flower \
ip_proto 1 \
action tunnel_key set \
src_ip 11.11.0.1 \

This action could be used before redirecting packets to a shared tunnel
device, or when redirecting packets arriving from a such a device.
The action will release the metadata created by the tunnel device
(decap), or set the metadata with the specified values for encap
operation.
For example, the following flower filter will forward all ICMP packets
destined to 11.11.11.2 through the shared vxlan device 'vxlan0'. Before
redirecting, a metadata for the vxlan tunnel is created using the
tunnel_key action and it's arguments:
$ tc filter add dev net0 protocol ip parent ffff: \
flower \
ip_proto 1 \
dst_ip 11.11.11.2 \
