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

Conflicts:
	drivers/net/ethernet/cadence/macb.c
	drivers/net/phy/phy.c
	include/linux/skbuff.h
	net/ipv4/tcp.c
	net/switchdev/switchdev.c

Switchdev was a case of RTNH_H_{EXTERNAL --> OFFLOAD}
renaming overlapping with net-next changes of various
sorts.

phy.c was a case of two changes, one adding a local
variable to a function whilst the second was removing
one.

tcp.c overlapped a deadlock fix with the addition of new tcp_info
statistic values.

macb.c involved the addition of two zyncq device entries.

skbuff.h involved adding back ipv4_daddr to nf_bridge_info
whilst net-next changes put two other existing members of
that struct into a union.
