Pull networking fixes from Jakub Kicinski:
"Including fixes from netfilter.
Looks like our attempt to keep the PRs smaller have only prevented
this one from getting even bigger. In the last 9 days there were
405 postings explicitly tagged with [PATCH net], vs 687 with [PATCH
net-next]. 37% of posted patches being fixes is pretty crazy, and
that's likely undercounting because LLM "researchers" more often post
fixes without knowing to tag the patches for specific trees. I don't
have historic data.
In any case, we keep adjusting the criteria. The next PR will be
smaller.
Current release - regressions:
- net: defer netdev KOBJ_ADD uevent until the device is published,
previously rtnl_lock would serialize the accesses vs publishing
- net: explicitly cancel work to avoid races with ref tracker exit
- qrtr: ns: raise lookup limit to 128
- eth: hns3: fix speed configuration residue after driver reload
Previous releases - regressions:
- tcp: do not change rcv_ssthresh in tcp_measure_rcv_mss(), regressed
flows with MSS and scaling_ratio variability
- Revert "net: thunderbolt: Enable end-to-end flow control also in
transmit", broke some platforms (no packets coming thru)
- eth: stmmac: resume PHY before hardware setup when opening the
interface
Previous releases - always broken:
- another pile of fixes for less common protocols (SCTP, TLS, SMC
etc.)
- close a couple of AF_PACKET bugs and ways it can build skbs
problematic for the rest of the stack
- bridge: mrp: fix uninitialised bytes on the wire
- net: devmem: prevent net-iov / page mixing, avoid crashes
- eth: atlantic: free RX pages of consumed but not refilled buffers"
