Linus Torvalds c2eca00fec Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net
Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) Don't save TIPC header values before the header has been validated,
    from Jon Paul Maloy.

 2) Fix memory leak in RDS, from Zhu Yanjun.

 3) We miss to initialize the UID in the flow key in some paths, from
    Julian Anastasov.

 4) Fix latent TOS masking bug in the routing cache removal from years
    ago, also from Julian.

 5) We forget to set the sockaddr port in sctp_copy_local_addr_list(),
    fix from Xin Long.

 6) Missing module ref count drop in packet scheduler actions, from
    Roman Mashak.

 7) Fix RCU annotations in rht_bucket_nested, from Herbert Xu.

 8) Fix use after free which happens because L2TP's ipv4 support returns
    non-zero values from it's backlog_rcv function which ipv4 interprets
    as protocol values. Fix from Paul Hüber.

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.
