Pull ARM64 fixes from Catalin Marinas:
- Compat register fault reporting fix
- Documentation clarification on tagged pointers
- hwcap widened to 64-bit (user space already reading it as 64-bit)* tag 'arm64-stable' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmarinas/linux-aarch64:
arm64: Widen hwcap to be 64 bit
arm64: Correctly report LR and SP for compat tasks
arm64: documentation: tighten up tagged pointer documentation
arm64: Make do_bad_area() function static -
Commit d50240a5f6ce ("arm64: mm: permit use of tagged pointers at EL0")
added support for tagged pointers in userspace, but the corresponding
update to Documentation/ contained some imprecise statements.This patch fixes up some minor ambiguities in the text, hopefully making
it more clear about exactly what the kernel expects from user virtual
addresses.Signed-off-by: Will Deacon

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
1) If the local_df boolean is set on an SKB we have to allocate a
unique ID even if IP_DF is set in the ipv4 headers, from Ansis
Atteka.2) Some fixups for the new chipset support that went into the sfc
driver, from Ben Hutchings.3) Because SCTP bypasses a good chunk of, and actually duplicates, the
logic of the ipv6 output path, some IPSEC things don't get done
properly. Integrate SCTP better into the ipv6 output path so that
these problems are fixed and such issues don't get missed in the
future either. From Daniel Borkmann.4) Fix skge regressions added by the DMA mapping error return checking
added in v3.10, from Mikulas Patocka.5) Kill some more IRQF_DISABLED references, from Michael Opdenacker.
6) Fix races and deadlocks in the bridging code, from Hong Zhiguo.
7) Fix error handling in tun_set_iff(), in particular don't leak
resources. From Jason Wang.8) Prevent format-string injection into xen-netback driver, from Kees
Cook.9) Fix regression added to netpoll ARP packet handling, in particular
check for the right ETH_P_ARP protocol code. From Sonic Zhang.10) Try to deal with AMD IOMMU errors when using r8169 chips, from
Francois Romieu.11) Cure freezes due to recent changes in the rt2x00 wireless driver,
from Stanislaw Gruszka.12) Don't do SPI transfers (which can sleep) in interrupt context in
cw1200 driver, from Solomon Peachy.13) Fix LEDs handling bug in 5720 tg3 chips already handled for 5719.
From Nithin Sujir.14) Make xen_netbk_count_skb_slots() count the actual number of slots
that will be used, taking into consideration packing and other
issues that the transmit path will run into. From David Vrabel.15) Use the correct maximum age when calculating the bridge
message_age_timer, from Chris Healy.16) Get rid of memory leaks in mcs7780 IRDA driver, from Alexey
Khoroshilov.17) Netfilter conntrack extensions were converted to RCU but are not
always freed properly using kfree_rcu(). Fix from Michal Kubecek.18) VF reset recovery not being done correctly in qlcnic driver, from
Manish Chopra.19) Fix inverted test in ATM nicstar driver, from Andy Shevchenko.
20) Missing workqueue destroy in cxgb4 error handling, from Wei Yang.
21) Internal switch not initialized properly in bgmac driver, from Rafał
Miłecki.22) Netlink messages report wrong local and remote addresses in IPv6
tunneling, from Ding Zhi.23) ICMP redirects should not generate socket errors in DCCP and SCTP.
We're still working out how this should be handled for RAW and UDP
sockets. From Daniel Borkmann and Duan Jiong.24) We've had several bugs wherein the network namespace's loopback
device gets accessed after it is free'd, NULL it out so that we can
catch these problems more readily. From Eric W Biederman.25) Fix regression in TCP RTO calculations, from Neal Cardwell.
26) Fix too early free of xen-netback network device when VIFs still
exist. From Paul Durrant.* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (87 commits)

running bonding in ALB mode requires that learning packets be sent periodically,
so that the switch knows where to send responding traffic. However, depending
on switch configuration, there may not be any need to send traffic at the
default rate of 3 packets per second, which represents little more than wasted
data. Allow the ALB learning packet interval to be made configurable via sysfsSigned-off-by: Neil Horman

Pavel reported that in case if vma area get unmapped and then mapped (or
expanded) in-place, the soft dirty tracker won't be able to recognize this
situation since it works on pte level and ptes are get zapped on unmap,
loosing soft dirty bit of course.So to resolve this situation we need to track actions on vma level, there
VM_SOFTDIRTY flag comes in. When new vma area created (or old expanded)
we set this bit, and keep it here until application calls for clearing
soft dirty bit.Thus when user space application track memory changes now it can detect if
vma area is renewed.Reported-by: Pavel Emelyanov

Now hugepage migration is enabled, although restricted on pmd-based
hugepages for now (due to lack of testing.) So we should allocate
migratable hugepages from ZONE_MOVABLE if possible.This patch makes GFP flags in hugepage allocation dependent on migration
support, not only the value of hugepages_treat_as_movable. It provides no
change on the behavior for architectures which do not support hugepage
migration,Signed-off-by: Naoya Horiguchi

Explicitly mention/recommend using the libhugetlbfs test cases when
changing related kernel code. Developers that are unaware of the project
can easily miss this and introduce potential regressions that may or may
not be caught by community review.Also do some cleanups that make the document visually easier to view at a

Read block device partition table from command line. The partition used
for fixed block device (eMMC) embedded device. It is no MBR, save
storage space. Bootloader can be easily accessed by absolute address of
data on the block device. Users can easily change the partition.This code reference MTD partition, source "drivers/mtd/cmdlinepart.c"

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
1) Brown paper bag fix in HTB scheduler, class options set incorrectly
due to a typoe. Fix from Vimalkumar.2) It's possible for the ipv6 FIB garbage collector to run before all
the necessary datastructure are setup during init, defer the
notifier registry to avoid this problem. Fix from Michal Kubecek.3) New i40e ethernet driver from the Intel folks.
4) Add new qmi wwan device IDs, from Bjørn Mork.
5) Doorbell lock in bnx2x driver is not initialized properly in some
configurations, fix from Ariel Elior.6) Revert an ipv6 packet option padding change that broke standardized
ipv6 implementation test suites. From Jiri Pirko.7) Fix synchronization of ARP information in bonding layer, from
Nikolay Aleksandrov.8) Fix missing error return resulting in illegal memory accesses in
openvswitch, from Daniel Borkmann.9) SCTP doesn't signal poll events properly due to mistaken operator
precedence, fix also from Daniel Borkmann.10) __netdev_pick_tx() passes wrong index to sk_tx_queue_set() which
essentially disables caching of TX queue in sockets :-/ Fix from

Pull kconfig updates from Michal Marek:
"This is the kconfig part of kbuild for v3.12-rc1:
- post-3.11 search code fixes and micro-optimizations
- CONFIG_MODULES is no longer a special case; this is needed to
eventually fix the bug that using KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG breaks
allmodconfig
- long long is used to store hex and int values
- make silentoldconfig no longer warns when a symbol changes from
tristate to bool (it's a job for make oldconfig)
- scripts/diffconfig updated to work with newer Pythons
- scripts/config does not rely on GNU sed extensions"* 'kconfig' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild:
kconfig: do not allow more than one symbol to have 'option modules'
kconfig: regenerate bison parser
kconfig: do not special-case 'MODULES' symbol
diffconfig: Update script to support python versions 2.5 through 3.3
diffconfig: Gracefully exit if the default config files are not present
modules: do not depend on kconfig to set 'modules' option to symbol MODULES
kconfig: silence warning when parsing auto.conf when a symbol has changed type
scripts/config: use sed's POSIX interface
kconfig: switch to "long long" for sanity
kconfig: simplify symbol-search code
kconfig: don't allocate n+1 elements in temporary array
kconfig: minor style fixes in symbol-search code
kconfig/[mn]conf: shorten title in search-box
kconfig: avoid multiple calls to strlen
Documentation/kconfig: more concise and straightforward search explanation -
This patch adds the changes for Kconfig, i40e.txt, MAINTAINERS, Kbuild
and new i40e/Makefile to build i40e with the kernel.New driver build option is CONFIG_I40E
