Pull networking updates from David Miller:

 1) Allow setting bluetooth L2CAP modes via socket option, from Luiz
    Augusto von Dentz.

 2) Add GSO partial support to igc, from Sasha Neftin.

 3) Several cleanups and improvements to r8169 from Heiner Kallweit.

 4) Add IF_OPER_TESTING link state and use it when ethtool triggers a
    device self-test. From Andrew Lunn.

 5) Start moving away from custom driver versions, use the globally
    defined kernel version instead, from Leon Romanovsky.

 6) Support GRO vis gro_cells in DSA layer, from Alexander Lobakin.

 7) Allow hard IRQ deferral during NAPI, from Eric Dumazet.

 8) Add sriov and vf support to hinic, from Luo bin.

 9) Support Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) in the bridging code, from
    Horatiu Vultur.

10) Support netmap in the nft_nat code, from Pablo Neira Ayuso.

11) Allow UDPv6 encapsulation of ESP in the ipsec code, from Sabrina
    Dubroca. Also add ipv6 support for espintcp.

12) Lots of ReST conversions of the networking documentation, from Mauro
    Carvalho Chehab.

13) Support configuration of ethtool rxnfc flows in bcmgenet driver,
    from Doug Berger.

14) Allow to dump cgroup id and filter by it in inet_diag code, from
    Dmitry Yakunin.

15) Add infrastructure to export netlink attribute policies to
    userspace, from Johannes Berg.

16) Several optimizations to sch_fq scheduler, from Eric Dumazet.

17) Fallback to the default qdisc if qdisc init fails because otherwise
    a packet scheduler init failure will make a device inoperative. From
    Jesper Dangaard Brouer.

18) Several RISCV bpf jit optimizations, from Luke Nelson.

19) Correct the return type of the ->ndo_start_xmit() method in several
    drivers, it's netdev_tx_t but many drivers were using
    'int'. From Yunjian Wang.

20) Add an ethtool interface for PHY master/slave config, from Oleksij
    Rempel.

21) Add BPF iterators, from Yonghang Song.

22) Add cable test infrastructure, including ethool interfaces, from
    Andrew Lunn. Marvell PHY driver is the first to support this
    facility.

23) Remove zero-length arrays all over, from Gustavo A. R. Silva.

24) Calculate and maintain an explicit frame size in XDP, from Jesper
    Dangaard Brouer.

25) Add CAP_BPF, from Alexei Starovoitov.

26) Support terse dumps in the packet scheduler, from Vlad Buslov.

27) Support XDP_TX bulking in dpaa2 driver, from Ioana Ciornei.

28) Add devm_register_netdev(), from Bartosz Golaszewski.

29) Minimize qdisc resets, from Cong Wang.

30) Get rid of kernel_getsockopt and kernel_setsockopt in order to
    eliminate set_fs/get_fs calls. From Christoph Hellwig.

See the kernels selftest `Documentation/dev-tools/kselftest.rst`_
document for further documentation.

To maximize the number of tests passing, the .config of the kernel
under test should match the config file fragment in
tools/testing/selftests/bpf as closely as possible.

Finally to ensure support for latest BPF Type Format features -
discussed in `Documentation/bpf/btf.rst`_ - pahole version 1.16
is required for kernels built with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF=y.
pahole is delivered in the dwarves package or can be built
from source at

Some distros have pahole version 1.16 packaged already, e.g.
Fedora, Gentoo.
