Pull networking updates from David Miller:

 1) New offloading infrastructure and example 'rocker' driver for
    offloading of switching and routing to hardware.

    This work was done by a large group of dedicated individuals, not
    limited to: Scott Feldman, Jiri Pirko, Thomas Graf, John Fastabend,
    Jamal Hadi Salim, Andy Gospodarek, Florian Fainelli, Roopa Prabhu

 2) Start making the networking operate on IOV iterators instead of
    modifying iov objects in-situ during transfers.  Thanks to Al Viro
    and Herbert Xu.

 3) A set of new netlink interfaces for the TIPC stack, from Richard
    Alpe.

 4) Remove unnecessary looping during ipv6 routing lookups, from Martin
    KaFai Lau.

 5) Add PAUSE frame generation support to gianfar driver, from Matei
    Pavaluca.

 6) Allow for larger reordering levels in TCP, which are easily
    achievable in the real world right now, from Eric Dumazet.

 7) Add a variable of napi_schedule that doesn't need to disable cpu
    interrupts, from Eric Dumazet.

 8) Use a doubly linked list to optimize neigh_parms_release(), from
    Nicolas Dichtel.

 9) Various enhancements to the kernel BPF verifier, and allow eBPF
    programs to actually be attached to sockets.  From Alexei
    Starovoitov.

10) Support TSO/LSO in sunvnet driver, from David L Stevens.

11) Allow controlling ECN usage via routing metrics, from Florian
    Westphal.

12) Remote checksum offload, from Tom Herbert.

13) Add split-header receive, BQL, and xmit_more support to amd-xgbe
    driver, from Thomas Lendacky.

14) Add MPLS support to openvswitch, from Simon Horman.

15) Support wildcard tunnel endpoints in ipv6 tunnels, from Steffen
    Klassert.

16) Do gro flushes on a per-device basis using a timer, from Eric
    Dumazet.  This tries to resolve the conflicting goals between the
    desired handling of bulk vs.  RPC-like traffic.

17) Allow userspace to ask for the CPU upon what a packet was
    received/steered, via SO_INCOMING_CPU.  From Eric Dumazet.

18) Limit GSO packets to half the current congestion window, from Eric
    Dumazet.

19) Add a generic helper so that all drivers set their RSS keys in a
    consistent way, from Eric Dumazet.

20) Add xmit_more support to enic driver, from Govindarajulu
    Varadarajan.

21) Add VLAN packet scheduler action, from Jiri Pirko.

22) Support configurable RSS hash functions via ethtool, from Eyal
    Perry.
