Linus Torvalds 5b7d27967d Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net
Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) Avoid negative netdev refcount in error flow of xfrm state add, from
    Aviad Yehezkel.

 2) Fix tcpdump decoding of IPSEC decap'd frames by filling in the
    ethernet header protocol field in xfrm{4,6}_mode_tunnel_input().
    From Yossi Kuperman.

 3) Fix a syzbot triggered skb_under_panic in pppoe having to do with
    failing to allocate an appropriate amount of headroom. From
    Guillaume Nault.

 4) Fix memory leak in vmxnet3 driver, from Neil Horman.

 5) Cure out-of-bounds packet memory access in em_nbyte EMATCH module,
    from Wolfgang Bumiller.

 6) Restrict what kinds of sockets can be bound to the KCM multiplexer
    and also disallow when another layer has attached to the socket and
    made use of sk_user_data. From Tom Herbert.

 7) Fix use before init of IOTLB in vhost code, from Jason Wang.

 8) Correct STACR register write bit definition in IBM emac driver, from
    Ivan Mikhaylov.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
