Pull networking fixes from David Miller: "Some holiday bug fixes for 3.13... There is still one bug I'd like to get fixed before 3.13-final. The vlan code erroneously assignes the header ops of the underlying real device to the VLAN device above it when the real device can hardware offload VLAN handling. That's completely bogus because header ops are tied to the device type, so they only expect to see a 'dev' argument compatible with their ops. The fix is the have the VLAN code use a special set of header ops that does the pass-thru correctly, by calling the underlying real device's header ops but _also_ passing in the real device instead of the VLAN device. That fix is currently waiting some testing. Anyways, of note here: 1) Fix bitmap edge case in radiotap, from Johannes Berg. 2) Fix oops on driver unload in rtlwifi, from Larry Finger. 3) Bonding doesn't do locking correctly during speed/duplex/link changes, from Ding Tianhong. 4) Fix header parsing in GRE code, this bug has been around for a few releases. From Timo Teräs. 5) SIT tunnel driver MTU check needs to take GSO into account, from Eric Dumazet. 6) Minor info leak in inet_diag, from Daniel Borkmann. 7) Info leak in YAM hamradio driver, from Salva Peiró. 8) Fix route expiration state handling in ipv6 routing code, from Li RongQing. 9) DCCP probe module does not check request_module()'s return value, from Wang Weidong. 10) cpsw driver passes NULL device names to request_irq(), from Mugunthan V N. 11) Prevent a NULL splat in RDS binding code, from Sasha Levin. 12) Fix 4G overflow test in tg3 driver, from Nithin Sujir. 13) Cure use after free in arc_emac and fec driver's software timestamp handling, from Eric Dumazet. 14) SIT driver can fail to release the route when iptunnel_handle_offloads() throws an error. From Li RongQing. 15) Several batman-adv fixes from Simon Wunderlich and Antonio Quartulli. 16) Fix deadlock during TIPC socket release, from Ying Xue. 17) Fix regression in ROSE protocol recvmsg() msg_name handling, from Florian Westphal. 18) stmmac PTP support releases wrong spinlock, from Vince Bridgers" * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (73 commits) stmmac: Fix incorrect spinlock release and PTP cap detection. phy: IRQ cannot be shared net: rose: restore old recvmsg behavior xen-netback: fix guest-receive-side array sizes fec: Do not assume that PHY reset is active low tipc: fix deadlock during socket release netfilter: nf_tables: fix wrong datatype in nft_validate_data_load() batman-adv: fix vlan header access batman-adv: clean nf state when removing protocol header batman-adv: fix alignment for batadv_tvlv_tt_change batman-adv: fix size of batadv_bla_claim_dst batman-adv: fix size of batadv_icmp_header batman-adv: fix header alignment by unrolling batadv_header batman-adv: fix alignment for batadv_coded_packet netfilter: nf_tables: fix oops when updating table with user chains netfilter: nf_tables: fix dumping with large number of sets ipv6: release dst properly in ipip6_tunnel_xmit netxen: Correct off-by-one errors in bounds checks net: Add some clarification to skb_tx_timestamp() comment. arc_emac: fix potential use after free ...
