Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) Fix verifier memory corruption and other bugs in BPF layer, from Alexei Starovoitov. 2) Add a conservative fix for doing BPF properly in the BPF classifier of the packet scheduler on ingress. Also from Alexei. 3) The SKB scrubber should not clear out the packet MARK and security label, from Herbert Xu. 4) Fix oops on rmmod in stmmac driver, from Bryan O'Donoghue. 5) Pause handling is not correct in the stmmac driver because it doesn't take into consideration the RX and TX fifo sizes. From Vince Bridgers. 6) Failure path missing unlock in FOU driver, from Wang Cong. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (44 commits) net: dsa: use DEVICE_ATTR_RW to declare temp1_max netns: remove BUG_ONs from net_generic() IB/ipoib: Fix ndo_get_iflink sfc: Fix memcpy() with const destination compiler warning. altera tse: Fix network-delays and -retransmissions after high throughput. net: remove unused 'dev' argument from netif_needs_gso() act_mirred: Fix bogus header when redirecting from VLAN inet_diag: fix access to tcp cc information tcp: tcp_get_info() should fetch socket fields once net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: Add missing initialization in mv88e6xxx_set_port_state() skbuff: Do not scrub skb mark within the same name space Revert "net: Reset secmark when scrubbing packet" bpf: fix two bugs in verification logic when accessing 'ctx' pointer bpf: fix bpf helpers to use skb->mac_header relative offsets stmmac: Configure Flow Control to work correctly based on rxfifo size stmmac: Enable unicast pause frame detect in GMAC Register 6 stmmac: Read tx-fifo-depth and rx-fifo-depth from the devicetree stmmac: Add defines and documentation for enabling flow control stmmac: Add properties for transmit and receive fifo sizes stmmac: fix oops on rmmod after assigning ip addr ...

Child nodes of the Ethernet controller are typically the individual PHY devices
connected via the MDIO bus (sometimes the MDIO bus controller is separate).
