Merge tag 'net-6.4-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net
Pull networking fixes from Paolo Abeni:
"Including fixes from bluetooth and bpf.
Current release - regressions:
- net: fix skb leak in __skb_tstamp_tx()
- eth: mtk_eth_soc: fix QoS on DSA MAC on non MTK_NETSYS_V2 SoCs
Current release - new code bugs:
- handshake:
- fix sock->file allocation
- fix handshake_dup() ref counting
- bluetooth:
- fix potential double free caused by hci_conn_unlink
- fix UAF in hci_conn_hash_flush
Previous releases - regressions:
- core: fix stack overflow when LRO is disabled for virtual
interfaces
- tls: fix strparser rx issues
- bpf:
- fix many sockmap/TCP related issues
- fix a memory leak in the LRU and LRU_PERCPU hash maps
- init the offload table earlier
- eth: mlx5e:
- do as little as possible in napi poll when budget is 0
- fix using eswitch mapping in nic mode
- fix deadlock in tc route query code
Previous releases - always broken:
- udplite: fix NULL pointer dereference in __sk_mem_raise_allocated()
- raw: fix output xfrm lookup wrt protocol
- smc: reset connection when trying to use SMCRv2 fails
- phy: mscc: enable VSC8501/2 RGMII RX clock
- eth: octeontx2-pf: fix TSOv6 offload
- eth: cdc_ncm: deal with too low values of dwNtbOutMaxSize"

Maintainers will classify and update the state of the patches +themselves. No email should ever be sent to the list with the main purpose +of communicating with the bot, the bot commands should be seen as metadata. + +The use of the bot is restricted to authors of the patches (the ``From:`` +header on patch submission and command must match!), maintainers themselves +and a handful of senior reviewers.
