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.
