Linus Torvalds 7e703eccf0 Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net
Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
 "Things seem to be settling down as far as networking is concerned,
  let's hope this trend continues...

   1) Add iov_iter_revert() and use it to fix the behavior of
      skb_copy_datagram_msg() et al., from Al Viro.

   2) Fix the protocol used in the synthetic SKB we cons up for the
      purposes of doing a simulated route lookup for RTM_GETROUTE
      requests. From Florian Larysch.

   3) Don't add noop_qdisc to the per-device qdisc hashes, from Cong
      Wang.

   4) Don't call netdev_change_features with the team lock held, from
      Xin Long.

   5) Revert TCP F-RTO extension to catch more spurious timeouts because
      it interacts very badly with some middle-boxes. From Yuchung
      Cheng.

   6) Fix the loss of error values in l2tp {s,g}etsockopt calls, from
      Guillaume Nault.

   7) ctnetlink uses bit positions where it should be using bit masks,
      fix from Liping Zhang.

   8) Missing RCU locking in netfilter helper code, from Gao Feng.

   9) Avoid double frees and use-after-frees in tcp_disconnect(), from
      Eric Dumazet.

  10) Don't do a changelink before we register the netdevice in
      bridging, from Ido Schimmel.

  11) Lock the ipv6 device address list properly, from Rabin Vincent"

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.
