Merge tag 'for-net-2025-07-17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bluetooth/bluetooth (2025-07-17 07:54:49 -0700)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Including fixes from Bluetooth, CAN, WiFi and Netfilter.

More code here than I would have liked. That said, better now than
next week. Nothing particularly scary stands out. The improvement to
the OpenVPN input validation is a bit large but better get them in
before the code makes it to a final release. Some of the changes
we got from sub-trees could have been split better between the fix
and -next refactoring, IMHO, that has been communicated.

We have one known regression in a TI AM65 board not getting link.
The investigation is going a bit slow, a number of people are on
vacation. We'll try to wrap it up, but don't think it should hold
up the release.

Current release - fix to a fix:

- Bluetooth: L2CAP: fix attempting to adjust outgoing MTU, it broke
some headphones and speakers

Current release - regressions:

- wifi: ath12k: fix packets received in WBM error ring with REO LUT
enabled, fix Rx performance regression

- wifi: iwlwifi:
- fix crash due to a botched indexing conversion
- mask reserved bits in chan_state_active_bitmap, avoid FW assert()

Current release - new code bugs:

- nf_conntrack: fix crash due to removal of uninitialised entry

- eth: airoha: fix potential UaF in airoha_npu_get()

Previous releases - regressions:

- net: fix segmentation after TCP/UDP fraglist GRO

- af_packet: fix the SO_SNDTIMEO constraint not taking effect and
a potential soft lockup waiting for a completion

- rpl: fix UaF in rpl_do_srh_inline() for sneaky skb geometry

- virtio-net: fix recursive rtnl_lock() during probe()

- eth: stmmac: populate entire system_counterval_t in get_time_fn()

- eth: libwx: fix a number of crashes in the driver Rx path

- hv_netvsc: prevent IPv6 addrconf after IFF_SLAVE lost that meaning

Previous releases - always broken:

- mptcp: fix races in handling connection fallback to pure TCP

- rxrpc: assorted error handling and race fixes

- sched: another batch of "security" fixes for qdiscs (QFQ, HTB)

- tls: always refresh the queue when reading sock, avoid UaF

- phy: don't register LEDs for genphy, avoid deadlock

- Bluetooth: btintel: check if controller is ISO capable on
btintel_classify_pkt_type(), work around FW returning incorrect
capabilities

Misc:

- make OpenVPN Netlink input checking more strict before it makes it
to a final release

- wifi: cfg80211: remove scan request n_channels __counted_by, its only
yeilding false positives
