Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net
Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
"Some merge window fallout, some longer term fixes:
1) Handle headroom properly in lapbether and x25_asy drivers, from
Xie He.
2) Fetch MAC address from correct r8152 device node, from Thierry
Reding.
3) In the sw kTLS path we should allow MSG_CMSG_COMPAT in sendmsg,
from Rouven Czerwinski.
4) Correct fdputs in socket layer, from Miaohe Lin.
5) Revert troublesome sockptr_t optimization, from Christoph Hellwig.
6) Fix TCP TFO key reading on big endian, from Jason Baron.
7) Missing CAP_NET_RAW check in nfc, from Qingyu Li.
8) Fix inet fastreuse optimization with tproxy sockets, from Tim
Froidcoeur.
9) Fix 64-bit divide in new SFC driver, from Edward Cree.
10) Add a tracepoint for prandom_u32 so that we can more easily
perform usage analysis. From Eric Dumazet.
11) Fix rwlock imbalance in AF_PACKET, from John Ogness"
