Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) Various ipvlan fixes from Eric Dumazet and Mahesh Bandewar.

    The most important is to not assume the packet is RX just because
    the destination address matches that of the device. Such an
    assumption causes problems when an interface is put into loopback
    mode.

 2) If we retry when creating a new tc entry (because we dropped the
    RTNL mutex in order to load a module, for example) we end up with
    -EAGAIN and then loop trying to replay the request. But we didn't
    reset some state when looping back to the top like this, and if
    another thread meanwhile inserted the same tc entry we were trying
    to, we re-link it creating an enless loop in the tc chain. Fix from
    Daniel Borkmann.

 3) There are two different WRITE bits in the MDIO address register for
    the stmmac chip, depending upon the chip variant. Due to a bug we
    could set them both, fix from Hock Leong Kweh.

 4) Fix mlx4 bug in XDP_TX handling, from Tariq Toukan.

Commit beb0babfb77e ("korina: disable napi on close and restart")
introduced calls to napi_disable() that were missing before,
unfortunately this leaves a small window during which NAPI has a chance
to run, yet we just freed resources since korina_free_ring() has been
called:

Fix this by disabling NAPI first then freeing resource, and make sure
that we also cancel the restart task before doing the resource freeing.

Pull timer type cleanups from Thomas Gleixner:
 "This series does a tree wide cleanup of types related to
  timers/timekeeping.

   - Get rid of cycles_t and use a plain u64. The type is not really
     helpful and caused more confusion than clarity

   - Get rid of the ktime union. The union has become useless as we use
     the scalar nanoseconds storage unconditionally now. The 32bit
     timespec alike storage got removed due to the Y2038 limitations
     some time ago.

     That leaves the odd union access around for no reason. Clean it up.

  Both changes have been done with coccinelle and a small amount of
  manual mopping up"

ktime_set(S,N) was required for the timespec storage type and is still
useful for situations where a Seconds and Nanoseconds part of a time value
needs to be converted. For anything where the Seconds argument is 0, this
is pointless and can be replaced with a simple assignment.

When the state names got added a script was used to add the extra argument
to the calls. The script basically converted the state constant to a
string, but the cleanup to convert these strings into meaningful ones did
not happen.

Replace all the useless strings with 'subsys/xxx/yyy:state' strings which
are used in all the other places already.
