      Pull networking updates from David Miller:
      
       1) Missing netlink attribute validation in nft_lookup, from Patrick
          McHardy.
      
       2) Restrict ipv6 partial checksum handling to UDP, since that's the
          only case it works for.  From Vlad Yasevich.
      
       3) Clear out silly device table sentinal macros used by SSB and BCMA
          drivers.  From Joe Perches.
      
       4) Make sure the remote checksum code never creates a situation where
          the remote checksum is applied yet the tunneling metadata describing
          the remote checksum transformation is still present.  Otherwise an
          external entity might see this and apply the checksum again.  From
          Tom Herbert.
      
       5) Use msecs_to_jiffies() where applicable, from Nicholas Mc Guire.
      
       6) Don't explicitly initialize timer struct fields, use setup_timer()
          and mod_timer() instead.  From Vaishali Thakkar.
      
       7) Don't invoke tg3_halt() without the tp->lock held, from Jun'ichi
          Nomura.
      
       8) Missing __percpu annotation in ipvlan driver, from Eric Dumazet.
      
       9) Don't potentially perform skb_get() on shared skbs, also from Eric
          Dumazet.
      
      10) Fix COW'ing of metrics for non-DST_HOST routes in ipv6, from Martin
          KaFai Lau.
      
      11) Fix merge resolution error between the iov_iter changes in vhost and
          some bug fixes that occurred at the same time.  From Jason Wang.
      
      12) If rtnl_configure_link() fails we have to perform a call to
          ->dellink() before unregistering the device.  From WANG Cong.

      md/raid5: Fix livelock when array is both resyncing and degraded. · 26ac1073
      NeilBrown authored
      Commit a7854487:
        md: When RAID5 is dirty, force reconstruct-write instead of read-modify-write.
      
      Causes an RCW cycle to be forced even when the array is degraded.
      A degraded array cannot support RCW as that requires reading all data
      blocks, and one may be missing.
      
      Forcing an RCW when it is not possible causes a live-lock and the code
      spins, repeatedly deciding to do something that cannot succeed.
      
      So change the condition to only force RCW on non-degraded arrays.

      seccomp: cap SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO data to MAX_ERRNO · 580c57f1
      Kees Cook authored
      The value resulting from the SECCOMP_RET_DATA mask could exceed MAX_ERRNO
      when setting errno during a SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO filter action.  This makes
      sure we have a reliable value being set, so that an invalid errno will not
      be ignored by userspace.

      scripts/gdb: disable pagination while printing from breakpoint handler · a9c5bcfa
      Jan Kiszka authored
      While reporting the (refreshed) list of modules on automatic updates we
      may hit the page boundary of the output console and cause a stop if
      pagination is enabled.  However, gdb does not accept user input while
      running over the breakpoint handler.  So we get stuck, and the user is
      forced to interrupt gdb.
      
      Resolve this by disabling pagination during automatic symbol updates.  We
      restore the user's configuration once done.
