Linus Torvalds 98f75b8291 Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net
Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) If the user gives us a msg_namelen of 0, don't try to interpret
    anything pointed to by msg_name.  From Ani Sinha.

 2) Fix some bnx2i/bnx2fc randconfig compilation errors.

    The gist of the issue is that we firstly have drivers that span both
    SCSI and networking.  And at the top of that chain of dependencies
    we have things like SCSI_FC_ATTRS and SCSI_NETLINK which are
    selected.

    But since select is a sledgehammer and ignores dependencies,
    everything to select's SCSI_FC_ATTRS and/or SCSI_NETLINK has to also
    explicitly select their dependencies and so on and so forth.

    Generally speaking 'select' is supposed to only be used for child
    nodes, those which have no dependencies of their own.  And this
    whole chain of dependencies in the scsi layer violates that rather
    strongly.

    So just make SCSI_NETLINK depend upon it's dependencies, and so on
    and so forth for the things selecting it (either directly or
    indirectly).

    From Anish Bhatt and Randy Dunlap.

 3) Fix generation of blackhole routes in IPSEC, from Steffen Klassert.

 4) Actually notice netdev feature changes in rtl_open() code, from
    Hayes Wang.

 5) Fix divide by zero in bond enslaving, from Nikolay Aleksandrov.

 6) Missing memory barrier in sunvnet driver, from David Stevens.

 7) Don't leave anycast addresses around when ipv6 interface is
    destroyed, from Sabrina Dubroca.

 8) Don't call efx_{arch}_filter_sync_rx_mode before addr_list_lock is
    initialized in SFC driver, from Edward Cree.

 9) Fix missing DMA error checking in 3c59x, from Neal Horman.

10) Openvswitch doesn't emit OVS_FLOW_CMD_NEW notifications accidently,
    fix from Samuel Gauthier.

11) pch_gbe needs to select NET_PTP_CLASSIFY otherwise we can get a
    build error.

12) Fix macvlan regression wherein we stopped emitting
    broadcast/multicast frames over software devices.  From Nicolas
    Dichtel.

13) Fix infiniband bug due to unintended overflow of skb->cb[], from
    Eric Dumazet.  And add an assertion so this doesn't happen again.

14) dm9000_parse_dt() should return error pointers, not NULL.  From
    Tobias Klauser.

15) IP tunneling code uses this_cpu_ptr() in preemptible contexts, fix
    from Eric Dumazet.
