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

Pull networking changes from David Miller:
 "1) icmp6_dst_alloc() returns NULL instead of ERR_PTR() leading to
     crashes, particularly during shutdown.  Reported by Dave Jones and
     fixed by Eric Dumazet.

  2) hyperv and wimax/i2400m return NETDEV_TX_BUSY when they have
     already freed the SKB, which causes crashes as to the caller this
     means requeue the packet.  Fixes from Eric Dumazet.

  3) usbnet driver doesn't allocate the right amount of headroom on
     fresh RX SKBs, fix from Eric Dumazet.

  4) Fix regression in ip6_mc_find_dev_rcu(), as an RCU lookup it
     abolutely should not take a reference to 'dev', this leads to
     leaks.  Fix from RonQing Li.

  5) Fix netfilter ctnetlink race between delete and timeout expiration.
     From Pablo Neira Ayuso.

  6) Revert SFQ change which causes regressions, specifically queueing
     to tail can lead to unavoidable flow starvation.  From Eric
     Dumazet.

  7) Fix a memory leak and a crash on corrupt firmware files in bnx2x,
     from Michal Schmidt."
