Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net
Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) GRO overflow entries are not unlinked properly, resulting in list poison pointers being dereferenced. 2) Fix bridge build with ipv6 disabled, from Nikolay Aleksandrov. 3) Direct packet access and other fixes in BPF from Daniel Borkmann. 4) gred_change_table_def() gets passed the wrong pointer, a pointer to a set of unparsed attributes instead of the attribute itself. From Jakub Kicinski. 5) Allow macsec device to be brought up even if it's lowerdev is down, from Sabrina Dubroca. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: net: diag: document swapped src/dst in udp_dump_one. macsec: let the administrator set UP state even if lowerdev is down macsec: update operstate when lower device changes net: sched: gred: pass the right attribute to gred_change_table_def() ptp: drop redundant kasprintf() to create worker name net: bridge: remove ipv6 zero address check in mcast queries net: Properly unlink GRO packets on overflow. bpf: fix wrong helper enablement in cgroup local storage bpf: add bpf_jit_limit knob to restrict unpriv allocations bpf: make direct packet write unclone more robust bpf: fix leaking uninitialized memory on pop/peek helpers bpf: fix direct packet write into pop/peek helpers bpf: fix cg_skb types to hint access type in may_access_direct_pkt_data bpf: fix direct packet access for flow dissector progs bpf: disallow direct packet access for unpriv in cg_skb bpf: fix test suite to enable all unpriv program types bpf, btf: fix a missing check bug in btf_parse selftests/bpf: add config fragments BPF_STREAM_PARSER and XDP_SOCKETS bpf: devmap: fix wrong interface selection in notifier_call

+-------------
+
+This enforces a global limit for memory allocations to the BPF JIT
+compiler in order to reject unprivileged JIT requests once it has
+been surpassed. bpf_jit_limit contains the value of the global limit
+in bytes.
