Pull networking updates from David Miller:
"This is a re-do of the net-next pull request for the current merge
window. The only difference from the one I made the other day is that
this has Eliezer's interface renames and the timeout handling changes
made based upon your feedback, as well as a few bug fixes that have
trickeled in.
Highlights:
1) Low latency device polling, eliminating the cost of interrupt
handling and context switches. Allows direct polling of a network
device from socket operations, such as recvmsg() and poll().
Currently ixgbe, mlx4, and bnx2x support this feature.
Full high level description, performance numbers, and design in
commit 0a4db187a9 ("Merge branch 'll_poll'")
From Eliezer Tamir.
2) With the routing cache removed, ip_check_mc_rcu() gets exercised
more than ever before in the case where we have lots of multicast
addresses. Use a hash table instead of a simple linked list, from
Eric Dumazet.
3) Add driver for Atheros CQA98xx 802.11ac wireless devices, from
Bartosz Markowski, Janusz Dziedzic, Kalle Valo, Marek Kwaczynski,
Marek Puzyniak, Michal Kazior, and Sujith Manoharan.
4) Support reporting the TUN device persist flag to userspace, from
Pavel Emelyanov.
5) Allow controlling network device VF link state using netlink, from
Rony Efraim.
6) Support GRE tunneling in openvswitch, from Pravin B Shelar.
7) Adjust SOCK_MIN_RCVBUF and SOCK_MIN_SNDBUF for modern times, from
Daniel Borkmann and Eric Dumazet.
8) Allow controlling of TCP quickack behavior on a per-route basis,
from Cong Wang.
9) Several bug fixes and improvements to vxlan from Stephen
Hemminger, Pravin B Shelar, and Mike Rapoport. In particular,
support receiving on multiple UDP ports.
10) Major cleanups, particular in the area of debugging and cookie
lifetime handline, to the SCTP protocol code. From Daniel
Borkmann.
11) Allow packets to cross network namespaces when traversing tunnel
devices. From Nicolas Dichtel.
12) Allow monitoring netlink traffic via AF_PACKET sockets, in a
manner akin to how we monitor real network traffic via ptype_all.
From Daniel Borkmann.
13) Several bug fixes and improvements for the new alx device driver,
from Johannes Berg.
14) Fix scalability issues in the netem packet scheduler's time queue,
by using an rbtree. From Eric Dumazet.
15) Several bug fixes in TCP loss recovery handling, from Yuchung
Cheng.
16) Add support for GSO segmentation of MPLS packets, from Simon
Horman.
17) Make network notifiers have a real data type for the opaque
pointer that's passed into them. Use this to properly handle
network device flag changes in arp_netdev_event(). From Jiri
Pirko and Timo Teräs.
18) Convert several drivers over to module_pci_driver(), from Peter
Huewe.
19) tcp_fixup_rcvbuf() can loop 500 times over loopback, just use a
O(1) calculation instead. From Eric Dumazet.
20) Support setting of explicit tunnel peer addresses in ipv6, just
like ipv4. From Nicolas Dichtel.
21) Protect x86 BPF JIT against spraying attacks, from Eric Dumazet.
22) Prevent a single high rate flow from overruning an individual cpu
during RX packet processing via selective flow shedding. From
Willem de Bruijn.
23) Don't use spinlocks in TCP md5 signing fast paths, from Eric
Dumazet.
24) Don't just drop GSO packets which are above the TBF scheduler's
burst limit, chop them up so they are in-bounds instead. Also
from Eric Dumazet.
25) VLAN offloads are missed when configured on top of a bridge, fix
from Vlad Yasevich.
26) Support IPV6 in ping sockets. From Lorenzo Colitti.
27) Receive flow steering targets should be updated at poll() time
too, from David Majnemer.
28) Fix several corner case regressions in PMTU/redirect handling due
to the routing cache removal, from Timo Teräs.
29) We have to be mindful of ipv4 mapped ipv6 sockets in
upd_v6_push_pending_frames(). From Hannes Frederic Sowa.
30) Fix L2TP sequence number handling bugs, from James Chapman."

This patch fixes the following checkpatch warning:
WARNING: msleep < 20ms can sleep for up to 20ms
The implementation of msleep() is based on jiffies timeout
subsystem. Hence, its resolution is constrained by the value
of HZ tick rate. When HZ variable is configured to 100,
the jiffies variable is updated every 10 ms, so a timeout
of 1ms cannot be met using jiffies (it will be rounded up
to 10ms).
This patch replaces msleep(1) with usleep_range(1000, 1000).
usleep_range() uses hrtimers subsystem which is not bound
to HZ value and can provide microsecond-level resolution.

This patch renames the following variables:
'dwRegRead' into 'reg'
'rtStatus' into 'status'
This is done primarily to reduce line length below 80 chars,
since the size and the usage of dwRegRead variable
can be deduced by its type and the function called
to assign it, so it can be replaced by simply 'reg'.
Also, rtStatus is not more informative than just status
in the given context.

read_nic_*() functions are defined in r8192U_core.c.
They call internally usb_control_msg() to read the
nic registers and return the value read.
Following a remark made by Dan Carpenter, if usb_control_msg()
fails, the value returned will be invalid.
To accommodate for this, this patch changes the functions
to take a pointer as argument to set the value read and
return 0 on success and the error status on failure, so
that callers of read_nic_*() can check the return status.
Some other fixes introduced in read_nic_*() functions are:
The expressions (1<<EPROM_*_SHIFT) used to address and set
the individual bits of the eeprom register were replaced
with EPROM_*_BIT bitmasks to make the code more intuitive.
EPROM_*_BIT bitmasks were defined in r8192U_hw.h and
EPROM_*_SHIFT were removed.
In netdev_err(), which is called in case of failure,
the hardcoded function name in the error log message was
replaced with __func__ to reduce line size.
Also, from the error log message, it was omitted the word
"Timeout" and it is just reported the error code since the
failure can not only be due to timeout expiration but also
due to a memory allocation failure. In case of timeout
expiration, usb_start_wait_urb() prints an appropriate log
message when debug is enabled.
Finally, some minor fixes to the coding style were applied in
lines affected by the above changes, including the removal
of ifdef DEBUG_RX (the debugging of reads and writes of the
nic registers shall be done with explicit check on their
return status which will be added in a follow on patch).

- guarantees type safety
- improves code efficiency by enforcing the evaluation of
