Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
 "Another merge window, another set of networking changes.  I've heard
  rumblings that the lightweight tunnels infrastructure has been voted
  networking change of the year.  But what do I know?

   1) Add conntrack support to openvswitch, from Joe Stringer.

   2) Initial support for VRF (Virtual Routing and Forwarding), which
      allows the segmentation of routing paths without using multiple
      devices.  There are some semantic kinks to work out still, but
      this is a reasonably strong foundation.  From David Ahern.

   3) Remove spinlock fro act_bpf fast path, from Alexei Starovoitov.

   4) Ignore route nexthops with a link down state in ipv6, just like
      ipv4.  From Andy Gospodarek.

   5) Remove spinlock from fast path of act_gact and act_mirred, from
      Eric Dumazet.

   6) Document the DSA layer, from Florian Fainelli.

   7) Add netconsole support to bcmgenet, systemport, and DSA.  Also
      from Florian Fainelli.

   8) Add Mellanox Switch Driver and core infrastructure, from Jiri
      Pirko.

   9) Add support for "light weight tunnels", which allow for
      encapsulation and decapsulation without bearing the overhead of a
      full blown netdevice.  From Thomas Graf, Jiri Benc, and a cast of
      others.

  10) Add Identifier Locator Addressing support for ipv6, from Tom
      Herbert.

  11) Support fragmented SKBs in iwlwifi, from Johannes Berg.

  12) Allow perf PMUs to be accessed from eBPF programs, from Kaixu Xia.

  13) Add BQL support to 3c59x driver, from Loganaden Velvindron.

  14) Stop using a zero TX queue length to mean that a device shouldn't
      have a qdisc attached, use an explicit flag instead.  From Phil
      Sutter.

  15) Use generic geneve netdevice infrastructure in openvswitch, from
      Pravin B Shelar.

  16) Add infrastructure to avoid re-forwarding a packet in software
      that was already forwarded by a hardware switch.  From Scott
      Feldman.

  17) Allow AF_PACKET fanout function to be implemented in a bpf
      program, from Willem de Bruijn"
