Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
1) The per-network-namespace loopback device, and thus its namespace,
can have its teardown deferred for a long time if a kernel created
TCP socket closes and the namespace is exiting meanwhile. The kernel
keeps trying to finish the close sequence until it times out (which
takes quite some time).
Fix this by forcing the socket closed in this situation, from Dan
Streetman.
2) Fix regression where we're trying to invoke the update_pmtu method
on route types (in this case metadata tunnel routes) that don't
implement the dst_ops method. Fix from Nicolas Dichtel.
3) Fix long standing memory corruption issues in r8169 driver by
performing the chip statistics DMA programming more correctly. From
Francois Romieu.
4) Handle local broadcast sends over VRF routes properly, from David
Ahern.
5) Don't refire the DCCP CCID2 timer endlessly, otherwise the socket
can never be released. From Alexey Kodanev.
6) Set poll flags properly in VSOCK protocol layer, from Stefan
Hajnoczi.
* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net:
VSOCK: set POLLOUT | POLLWRNORM for TCP_CLOSING
dccp: don't restart ccid2_hc_tx_rto_expire() if sk in closed state
net: vrf: Add support for sends to local broadcast address
r8169: fix memory corruption on retrieval of hardware statistics.
net: don't call update_pmtu unconditionally
net: tcp: close sock if net namespace is exiting

README
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.
