Linus Torvalds e3181f2c0c Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net
Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) Fix IGMP handling wrt VRF, from David Ahern.

 2) Fix timer access to freed object in dccp, from Eric Dumazet.

 3) Use kmalloc_array() in ptr_ring to avoid overflow cases which are
    triggerable by userspace. Also from Eric Dumazet.

 4) Fix infinite loop in unmapping cleanup of nfp driver, from Colin Ian
    King.

 5) Correct datagram peek handling of empty SKBs, from Matthew Dawson.

 6) Fix use after free in TIPC, from Eric Dumazet.

 7) When replacing a route in ipv6 we need to reset the round robin
    pointer, from Wei Wang.

 8) Fix bug in pci_find_pcie_root_port() which was unearthed by the
    relaxed ordering changes, from Thierry Redding. I made sure to get
    an explicit ACK from Bjorn this time around :-)

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.
