Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) In TCP, don't register an FRTO for cumulatively ACK'd data that was previously SACK'd, from Neal Cardwell. 2) Need to hold RNL mutex in ipv4 multicast code namespace cleanup, from Cong WANG. 3) Similarly we have to hold RNL mutex for fib_rules_unregister(), also from Cong WANG. 4) Revert and rework netns nsid allocation fix, from Nicolas Dichtel. 5) When we encapsulate for a tunnel device, skb->sk still points to the user socket. So this leads to cases where we retraverse the ipv4/ipv6 output path with skb->sk being of some other address family (f.e. AF_PACKET). This can cause things to crash since the ipv4 output path is dereferencing an AF_PACKET socket as if it were an ipv4 one. The short term fix for 'net' and -stable is to elide these socket checks once we've entered an encapsulation sequence by testing xmit_recursion. Longer term we have a better solution wherein we pass the tunnel's socket down through the output paths, but that is way too invasive for 'net' and -stable. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. 6) l2tp_init() failure path forgets to unregister per-net ops, from Cong WANG. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: net/mlx4_core: Fix error message deprecation for ConnectX-2 cards net: dsa: fix filling routing table from OF description l2tp: unregister l2tp_net_ops on failure path mvneta: dont call mvneta_adjust_link() manually ipv6: protect skb->sk accesses from recursive dereference inside the stack netns: don't allocate an id for dead netns Revert "netns: don't clear nsid too early on removal" ip6mr: call del_timer_sync() in ip6mr_free_table() net: move fib_rules_unregister() under rtnl lock ipv4: take rtnl_lock and mark mrt table as freed on namespace cleanup tcp: fix FRTO undo on cumulative ACK of SACKed range xen-netfront: transmit fully GSO-sized packets
