Minor conflicts in drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en_rep.c,
we had some overlapping changes:

1) In 'net' MLX5E_PARAMS_LOG_{SQ,RQ}_SIZE -->
   MLX5E_REP_PARAMS_LOG_{SQ,RQ}_SIZE

2) In 'net-next' params->log_rq_size is renamed to be
   params->log_rq_mtu_frames.

3) In 'net-next' params->hard_mtu is added.

net: Drop pernet_operations::async

2018-03-27T17:18:09+00:00

Synchronous pernet_operations are not allowed anymore.
All are asynchronous. So, drop the structure member.

netlink: make sure nladdr has correct size in netlink_connect()

2018-03-26T01:14:51+00:00

KMSAN reports use of uninitialized memory in the case when |alen| is
smaller than sizeof(struct sockaddr_nl), and therefore |nladdr| isn't
fully copied from the userspace.

Fun set of conflict resolutions here...

For the mac80211 stuff, these were fortunately just parallel
adds.  Trivially resolved.

In drivers/net/phy/phy.c we had a bug fix in 'net' that moved the
function phy_disable_interrupts() earlier in the file, whilst in
'net-next' the phy_error() call from this function was removed.

In net/ipv4/xfrm4_policy.c, David Ahern's changes to remove the
'rt_table_id' member of rtable collided with a bug fix in 'net' that
added a new struct member "rt_mtu_locked" which needs to be copied
over here.

The mlxsw driver conflict consisted of net-next separating
the span code and definitions into separate files, whilst
a 'net' bug fix made some changes to that moved code.

The mlx5 infiniband conflict resolution was quite non-trivial,
the RDMA tree's merge commit was used as a guide here, and
here are their notes:

====================

    Due to bug fixes found by the syzkaller bot and taken into the for-rc
    branch after development for the 4.17 merge window had already started
    being taken into the for-next branch, there were fairly non-trivial
    merge issues that would need to be resolved between the for-rc branch
    and the for-next branch.  This merge resolves those conflicts and
    provides a unified base upon which ongoing development for 4.17 can
    be based.

    Conflicts:
            drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/main.c - Commit 42cea83f9524
            (IB/mlx5: Fix cleanup order on unload) added to for-rc and
            commit b5ca15ad7e61 (IB/mlx5: Add proper representors support)
            add as part of the devel cycle both needed to modify the
            init/de-init functions used by mlx5.  To support the new
            representors, the new functions added by the cleanup patch
            needed to be made non-static, and the init/de-init list
            added by the representors patch needed to be modified to
            match the init/de-init list changes made by the cleanup
            patch.
    Updates:
            drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/mlx5_ib.h - Update function
            prototypes added by representors patch to reflect new function
            names as changed by cleanup patch
            drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/ib_rep.c - Update init/de-init
            stage list to match new order from cleanup patch

netlink: avoid a double skb free in genlmsg_mcast()

2018-03-16T16:34:48+00:00

nlmsg_multicast() consumes always the skb, thus the original skb must be
freed only when this function is called with a clone.

netlink: put module reference if dump start fails

2018-02-22T19:01:38+00:00

Before, if cb->start() failed, the module reference would never be put,
because cb->cb_running is intentionally false at this point. Users are
generally annoyed by this because they can no longer unload modules that
leak references. Also, it may be possible to tediously wrap a reference
counter back to zero, especially since module.c still uses atomic_inc
instead of refcount_inc.

This patch expands the error path to simply call module_put if
cb->start() fails.
