Some fixes for regressions added this merge window in here, but some
fixes are for some even older regressions too :-/

1) Fine grained MII locking regression fix in 3c59x driver from
Ben Hutchings.

2) Off by one in NULL termination in IRDA stack. Fix from Dan
Carpenter.

3) Exhausting bind naming space in AF_UNIX can make unix_autobind()
loop forever. Fix from Tetsuo Handa.

4) Multipath routing breaks reverse-patch filtering. It would just
assume a device match when multiple hops exist for a route, instead
of properly walking the next-hops array to find a device match.

5) VIA velocity emits lots of DMA debug assertions, and attempts to fix
those lead to functional regressions, so turn scatter-gather
support back off by default until we can find a way to fix this
properly.

Thanks to Dave Jones for the report and patch testing.

6) Follow-up fix to Eric Dumazet's GRO packet merging adjustments to
handle differing headroom amounts properly. From Jarek Poplawski.
Thanks to Plamen Patrov for the original crash report and seemingly
endless help with testing.

7) Fix interactions between VHOST and control groups, from Michael S.
Tsirkin.

8) be2net driver fixes from Ajit Khaparde, wrong stats bump on multicast,
fix uncorrectable error detection, remove invalid BUG_ON() assertion.

9) stmmac sleeps while holding a spinlock, fix from Giuseppe Cavallaro,
report by Jiri Slaby.

10) Jiffies overflows in bonding ARp load balancer, from Jiri Bohac.

11) When bridging, need to use device ->select_queue() override when
present otherwise wireless devices fail, from Helmut Schaa.

12) In IPV6 overlapping fragments are now considered completely illegal,
because they allow bypassing of firewall rules (ie. first frag has
TCP header with flow information that's allowed, next flag overlaps
and overwrites TCP header with attacker's desired ports). From
Nicolas Dichtel.

13) Get b44 fifo recovery down to 20msc from several seconds because it
can happen frequently for users, from Mark Lord and James
Courtier-Dutton.

14) Active FTP regression fix in IPVS from Julian Anastasov.

15) Potential buffer overflow in niu driver ethtool code, from
Ben Hutchings.

16) FIB trie lockdep-RCU fixes from Jarek Poplawski.

17) Always relookup routes currently pointing to the blackhole rule,
as these routes are temporary. This fixes regressions in IPSEC.
Fix from Jianzhao Wang.

18) Fix a UDP hashing regression added in 2.6.33, the secondary hash needs
to be recalculated when the implicit local address change happens
as a side effect of connect(). From Eric Dumazet.

19) KS8851 RX packet allocation can missize the buffer and allow
memory corruption. From Eric Dumazet and Abraham Arce.

20) SCTP address validation tests list_head iterater against NULL
but that's not what such an iterator is set to when a
list_for_each_entry() loop exits normally. From Joe Perches
and Dan Carpenter.

21) ipheth is marked as "wwan" net device type, but that is not correct.
Fix from Dan Williams.

Please pull, thanks a lot!
