Linus Torvalds 80f232121b Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next
Pull networking updates from David Miller:
 "Highlights:

   1) Support AES128-CCM ciphers in kTLS, from Vakul Garg.

   2) Add fib_sync_mem to control the amount of dirty memory we allow to
      queue up between synchronize RCU calls, from David Ahern.

   3) Make flow classifier more lockless, from Vlad Buslov.

   4) Add PHY downshift support to aquantia driver, from Heiner
      Kallweit.

   5) Add SKB cache for TCP rx and tx, from Eric Dumazet. This reduces
      contention on SLAB spinlocks in heavy RPC workloads.

   6) Partial GSO offload support in XFRM, from Boris Pismenny.

   7) Add fast link down support to ethtool, from Heiner Kallweit.

   8) Use siphash for IP ID generator, from Eric Dumazet.

   9) Pull nexthops even further out from ipv4/ipv6 routes and FIB
      entries, from David Ahern.

  10) Move skb->xmit_more into a per-cpu variable, from Florian
      Westphal.

  11) Improve eBPF verifier speed and increase maximum program size,
      from Alexei Starovoitov.

  12) Eliminate per-bucket spinlocks in rhashtable, and instead use bit
      spinlocks. From Neil Brown.

  13) Allow tunneling with GUE encap in ipvs, from Jacky Hu.

  14) Improve link partner cap detection in generic PHY code, from
      Heiner Kallweit.

  15) Add layer 2 encap support to bpf_skb_adjust_room(), from Alan
      Maguire.

  16) Remove SKB list implementation assumptions in SCTP, your's truly.

  17) Various cleanups, optimizations, and simplifications in r8169
      driver. From Heiner Kallweit.

  18) Add memory accounting on TX and RX path of SCTP, from Xin Long.

  19) Switch PHY drivers over to use dynamic featue detection, from
      Heiner Kallweit.

  20) Support flow steering without masking in dpaa2-eth, from Ioana
      Ciocoi.

  21) Implement ndo_get_devlink_port in netdevsim driver, from Jiri
      Pirko.

  22) Increase the strict parsing of current and future netlink
      attributes, also export such policies to userspace. From Johannes
      Berg.

  23) Allow DSA tag drivers to be modular, from Andrew Lunn.

  24) Remove legacy DSA probing support, also from Andrew Lunn.

  25) Allow ll_temac driver to be used on non-x86 platforms, from Esben
      Haabendal.

  26) Add a generic tracepoint for TX queue timeouts to ease debugging,
      from Cong Wang.

  27) More indirect call optimizations, from Paolo Abeni"
