* 'master' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-2.6: (867 commits)
  [SKY2]: status polling loop (post merge)
  [NET]: Fix NAPI completion handling in some drivers.
  [TCP]: Limit processing lost_retrans loop to work-to-do cases
  [TCP]: Fix lost_retrans loop vs fastpath problems
  [TCP]: No need to re-count fackets_out/sacked_out at RTO
  [TCP]: Extract tcp_match_queue_to_sack from sacktag code
  [TCP]: Kill almost unused variable pcount from sacktag
  [TCP]: Fix mark_head_lost to ignore R-bit when trying to mark L
  [TCP]: Add bytes_acked (ABC) clearing to FRTO too
  [IPv6]: Update setsockopt(IPV6_MULTICAST_IF) to support RFC 3493, try2
  [NETFILTER]: x_tables: add missing ip6t_modulename aliases
  [NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack_tcp: fix connection reopening
  [QETH]: fix qeth_main.c
  [NETLINK]: fib_frontend build fixes
  [IPv6]: Export userland ND options through netlink (RDNSS support)
  [9P]: build fix with !CONFIG_SYSCTL
  [NET]: Fix dev_put() and dev_hold() comments
  [NET]: make netlink user -> kernel interface synchronious
  [NET]: unify netlink kernel socket recognition
  [NET]: cleanup 3rd argument in netlink_sendskb
  ...

Fix up conflicts manually in Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt
and my new least favourite crap, the "mod_devicetable" support in the
files include/linux/mod_devicetable.h and scripts/mod/file2alias.c.

(The latter files seem to be explicitly _designed_ to get conflicts when
different subsystems work with them - that have an absolutely horrid
lack of subsystem separation!)
