====================
pull request (net-next): ipsec-next 2018-10-01
1) Make xfrmi_get_link_net() static to silence a sparse warning.
From Wei Yongjun.
2) Remove a unused esph pointer definition in esp_input().
From Haishuang Yan.
3) Allow the NIC driver to quietly refuse xfrm offload
in case it does not support it, the SA is created
without offload in this case.
From Shannon Nelson.
Please pull or let me know if there are problems.
