Pull networking updates from David Miller:
 "Highlights:

   1) Support AES128-CCM ciphers in kTLS, from Vakul Garg.

   2) Add fib_sync_mem to control the amount of dirty memory we allow to
      queue up between synchronize RCU calls, from David Ahern.

   3) Make flow classifier more lockless, from Vlad Buslov.

   4) Add PHY downshift support to aquantia driver, from Heiner
      Kallweit.

   5) Add SKB cache for TCP rx and tx, from Eric Dumazet. This reduces
      contention on SLAB spinlocks in heavy RPC workloads.

   6) Partial GSO offload support in XFRM, from Boris Pismenny.

   7) Add fast link down support to ethtool, from Heiner Kallweit.

   8) Use siphash for IP ID generator, from Eric Dumazet.

   9) Pull nexthops even further out from ipv4/ipv6 routes and FIB
      entries, from David Ahern.

  10) Move skb-&gt;xmit_more into a per-cpu variable, from Florian
      Westphal.

  11) Improve eBPF verifier speed and increase maximum program size,
      from Alexei Starovoitov.

  12) Eliminate per-bucket spinlocks in rhashtable, and instead use bit
      spinlocks. From Neil Brown.

  13) Allow tunneling with GUE encap in ipvs, from Jacky Hu.

  14) Improve link partner cap detection in generic PHY code, from
      Heiner Kallweit.

  15) Add layer 2 encap support to bpf_skb_adjust_room(), from Alan
      Maguire.

  16) Remove SKB list implementation assumptions in SCTP, your's truly.

  17) Various cleanups, optimizations, and simplifications in r8169
      driver. From Heiner Kallweit.

  18) Add memory accounting on TX and RX path of SCTP, from Xin Long.

  19) Switch PHY drivers over to use dynamic featue detection, from
      Heiner Kallweit.

  20) Support flow steering without masking in dpaa2-eth, from Ioana
      Ciocoi.

  21) Implement ndo_get_devlink_port in netdevsim driver, from Jiri
      Pirko.

  22) Increase the strict parsing of current and future netlink
      attributes, also export such policies to userspace. From Johannes
      Berg.

  23) Allow DSA tag drivers to be modular, from Andrew Lunn.

  24) Remove legacy DSA probing support, also from Andrew Lunn.

  25) Allow ll_temac driver to be used on non-x86 platforms, from Esben
      Haabendal.

  26) Add a generic tracepoint for TX queue timeouts to ease debugging,
      from Cong Wang.

  27) More indirect call optimizations, from Paolo Abeni"

Pull mmiowb removal from Will Deacon:
 "Remove Mysterious Macro Intended to Obscure Weird Behaviours (mmiowb())

  Remove mmiowb() from the kernel memory barrier API and instead, for
  architectures that need it, hide the barrier inside spin_unlock() when
  MMIO has been performed inside the critical section.

  The only relatively recent changes have been addressing review
  comments on the documentation, which is in a much better shape thanks
  to the efforts of Ben and Ingo.

  I was initially planning to split this into two pull requests so that
  you could run the coccinelle script yourself, however it's been plain
  sailing in linux-next so I've just included the whole lot here to keep
  things simple"

There was NVMEM support added to of_get_mac_address, so it could now return
ERR_PTR encoded error values, so we need to adjust all current users of
of_get_mac_address to this new fact.

Kalle Valo says:

====================
wireless-drivers-next patches for 5.2

Most likely the last patchset of new feature for 5.2, and this time we
have quite a lot of new features. Most obvious being rtw88 from
Realtek which supports RTL8822BE and RTL8822CE 802.11ac devices. We
have also new hardware support for existing drivers and improvements.

There's one conflict in iwlwifi, my example conflict resolution below.

Major changes:

iwlwifi

* bump the 20000-series FW API version

Kalle Valo says:

====================
wireless-drivers-next patches for 5.2

Most likely the last patchset of new feature for 5.2, and this time we
have quite a lot of new features. Most obvious being rtw88 from
Realtek which supports RTL8822BE and RTL8822CE 802.11ac devices. We
have also new hardware support for existing drivers and improvements.

There's one conflict in iwlwifi, my example conflict resolution below.

<title>ath10k: Drop WARN_ON()s that always trigger during system resume</title>

ath10k_mac_vif_chan() always returns an error for the given vif
during system-wide resume which reliably triggers two WARN_ON()s
in ath10k_bss_info_changed() and they are not particularly
useful in that code path, so drop them.

Tested: QCA6174 hw3.2 PCI with WLAN.RM.2.0-00180-QCARMSWPZ-1
Tested: QCA6174 hw3.2 SDIO with WLAN.RMH.4.4.1-00007-QCARMSWP-1

Commit 25733c4e67df ("ath10k: pci: use mutex for diagnostic window CE
polling") introduced a regression where we try to sleep (grab a mutex)
in an atomic context:

[...]

ath10k_pci_fw_crashed_dump() is called from NAPI contexts, and firmware
memory dumps are retrieved using the diag memory interface.

A simple reproduction case is to run this on QCA6174A /
WLAN.RM.4.4.1-00132-QCARMSWP-1, which happens to be a way to b0rk the
firmware:

  dd if=/sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/ath10k/mem_value bs=4K count=1
of=/dev/null

(NB: simulated firmware crashes, via debugfs, don't trigger firmware
dumps.)

The fix is to move the crash-dump into a workqueue context, and avoid
relying on 'data_lock' for most mutual exclusion. We only keep using it
here for protecting 'fw_crash_counter', while the rest of the coredump
buffers are protected by a new 'dump_mutex'.

I've tested the above with simulated firmware crashes (debugfs 'reset'
file), real firmware crashes (the 'dd' command above), and a variety of
reboot and suspend/resume configurations on QCA6174A.
