Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) Fix cfg80211 deadlock, from Johannes Berg. 2) RXRPC fails to send norigications, from David Howells. 3) MPTCP RM_ADDR parsing has an off by one pointer error, fix from Geliang Tang. 4) Fix crash when using MSG_PEEK with sockmap, from Anny Hu. 5) The ucc_geth driver needs __netdev_watchdog_up exported, from Valentin Longchamp. 6) Fix hashtable memory leak in dccp, from Wang Hai. 7) Fix how nexthops are marked as FDB nexthops, from David Ahern. 8) Fix mptcp races between shutdown and recvmsg, from Paolo Abeni. 9) Fix crashes in tipc_disc_rcv(), from Tuong Lien. 10) Fix link speed reporting in iavf driver, from Brett Creeley. 11) When a channel is used for XSK and then reused again later for XSK, we forget to clear out the relevant data structures in mlx5 which causes all kinds of problems. Fix from Maxim Mikityanskiy. 12) Fix memory leak in genetlink, from Cong Wang. 13) Disallow sockmap attachments to UDP sockets, it simply won't work.

+=======================
+sja1105 devlink support
+=======================
+
+This document describes the devlink features implemented
+by the ``sja1105`` device driver.
+
+Parameters
+==========
+
+.. list-table:: Driver-specific parameters implemented
+ :widths: 5 5 5 85
+
+ * - Name
+ - Type
+ - Mode
+ - Description
+ * - ``best_effort_vlan_filtering``
+ - Boolean
+ - runtime
+ - Allow plain ETH_P_8021Q headers to be used as DSA tags.
+
+ Benefits:
+
+ - Can terminate untagged traffic over switch net
+ devices even when enslaved to a bridge with
+ vlan_filtering=1.
+ - Can terminate VLAN-tagged traffic over switch net
+ devices even when enslaved to a bridge with
+ vlan_filtering=1, with some constraints (no more than
+ 7 non-pvid VLANs per user port).
+ - Can do QoS based on VLAN PCP and VLAN membership
+ admission control for autonomously forwarded frames
+ (regardless of whether they can be terminated on the
+ CPU or not).
+
+ Drawbacks:
+
+ - User cannot use VLANs in range 1024-3071. If the
+ switch receives frames with such VIDs, it will
+ misinterpret them as DSA tags.
+ - Switch uses Shared VLAN Learning (FDB lookup uses
+ only DMAC as key).
+ - When VLANs span cross-chip topologies, the total
+ number of permitted VLANs may be less than 7 per
+ port, due to a maximum number of 32 VLAN retagging
+ rules per switch.
