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

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
 "Reasonably busy this cycle, but perhaps not as busy as in the 4.12
  merge window:

   1) Several optimizations for UDP processing under high load from
      Paolo Abeni.

   2) Support pacing internally in TCP when using the sch_fq packet
      scheduler for this is not practical. From Eric Dumazet.

   3) Support mutliple filter chains per qdisc, from Jiri Pirko.

   4) Move to 1ms TCP timestamp clock, from Eric Dumazet.

   5) Add batch dequeueing to vhost_net, from Jason Wang.

   6) Flesh out more completely SCTP checksum offload support, from
      Davide Caratti.

   7) More plumbing of extended netlink ACKs, from David Ahern, Pablo
      Neira Ayuso, and Matthias Schiffer.

   8) Add devlink support to nfp driver, from Simon Horman.

   9) Add RTM_F_FIB_MATCH flag to RTM_GETROUTE queries, from Roopa
      Prabhu.

  10) Add stack depth tracking to BPF verifier and use this information
      in the various eBPF JITs. From Alexei Starovoitov.

  11) Support XDP on qed device VFs, from Yuval Mintz.

  12) Introduce BPF PROG ID for better introspection of installed BPF
      programs. From Martin KaFai Lau.

  13) Add bpf_set_hash helper for TC bpf programs, from Daniel Borkmann.

  14) For loads, allow narrower accesses in bpf verifier checking, from
      Yonghong Song.

  15) Support MIPS in the BPF selftests and samples infrastructure, the
      MIPS eBPF JIT will be merged in via the MIPS GIT tree. From David
      Daney.

  16) Support kernel based TLS, from Dave Watson and others.

  17) Remove completely DST garbage collection, from Wei Wang.

  18) Allow installing TCP MD5 rules using prefixes, from Ivan
      Delalande.

  19) Add XDP support to Intel i40e driver, from Björn Töpel

  20) Add support for TC flower offload in nfp driver, from Simon
      Horman, Pieter Jansen van Vuuren, Benjamin LaHaise, Jakub
      Kicinski, and Bert van Leeuwen.

  21) IPSEC offloading support in mlx5, from Ilan Tayari.

  22) Add HW PTP support to macb driver, from Rafal Ozieblo.

  23) Networking refcount_t conversions, From Elena Reshetova.

  24) Add sock_ops support to BPF, from Lawrence Brako. This is useful
      for tuning the TCP sockopt settings of a group of applications,
      currently via CGROUPs"
