 networking changes for the 5.10 merge window
 
 Add redirect_neigh() BPF packet redirect helper, allowing to limit stack
 traversal in common container configs and improving TCP back-pressure.
 Daniel reports ~10Gbps => ~15Gbps single stream TCP performance gain.
 
 Expand netlink policy support and improve policy export to user space.
 (Ge)netlink core performs request validation according to declared
 policies. Expand the expressiveness of those policies (min/max length
 and bitmasks). Allow dumping policies for particular commands.
 This is used for feature discovery by user space (instead of kernel
 version parsing or trial and error).
 
 Support IGMPv3/MLDv2 multicast listener discovery protocols in bridge.
 
 Allow more than 255 IPv4 multicast interfaces.
 
 Add support for Type of Service (ToS) reflection in SYN/SYN-ACK
 packets of TCPv6.
 
 In Multi-patch TCP (MPTCP) support concurrent transmission of data
 on multiple subflows in a load balancing scenario. Enhance advertising
 addresses via the RM_ADDR/ADD_ADDR options.
 
 Support SMC-Dv2 version of SMC, which enables multi-subnet deployments.
 
 Allow more calls to same peer in RxRPC.
 
 Support two new Controller Area Network (CAN) protocols -
 CAN-FD and ISO 15765-2:2016.
 
 Add xfrm/IPsec compat layer, solving the 32bit user space on 64bit
 kernel problem.
 
 Add TC actions for implementing MPLS L2 VPNs.
 
 Improve nexthop code - e.g. handle various corner cases when nexthop
 objects are removed from groups better, skip unnecessary notifications
 and make it easier to offload nexthops into HW by converting
 to a blocking notifier.
 
 Support adding and consuming TCP header options by BPF programs,
 opening the doors for easy experimental and deployment-specific
 TCP option use.
 
 Reorganize TCP congestion control (CC) initialization to simplify life
 of TCP CC implemented in BPF.
 
 Add support for shipping BPF programs with the kernel and loading them
 early on boot via the User Mode Driver mechanism, hence reusing all the
 user space infra we have.
 
 Support sleepable BPF programs, initially targeting LSM and tracing.
 
 Add bpf_d_path() helper for returning full path for given 'struct path'.
 
 Make bpf_tail_call compatible with bpf-to-bpf calls.
 
 Allow BPF programs to call map_update_elem on sockmaps.
 
 Add BPF Type Format (BTF) support for type and enum discovery, as
 well as support for using BTF within the kernel itself (current use
 is for pretty printing structures).
 
 Support listing and getting information about bpf_links via the bpf
 syscall.
 
 Enhance kernel interfaces around NIC firmware update. Allow specifying
 overwrite mask to control if settings etc. are reset during update;
 report expected max time operation may take to users; support firmware
 activation without machine reboot incl. limits of how much impact
 reset may have (e.g. dropping link or not).
 
 Extend ethtool configuration interface to report IEEE-standard
 counters, to limit the need for per-vendor logic in user space.
 
 Adopt or extend devlink use for debug, monitoring, fw update
 in many drivers (dsa loop, ice, ionic, sja1105, qed, mlxsw,
 mv88e6xxx, dpaa2-eth).
 
 In mlxsw expose critical and emergency SFP module temperature alarms.
 Refactor port buffer handling to make the defaults more suitable and
 support setting these values explicitly via the DCBNL interface.
 
 Add XDP support for Intel's igb driver.
 
 Support offloading TC flower classification and filtering rules to
 mscc_ocelot switches.
 
 Add PTP support for Marvell Octeontx2 and PP2.2 hardware, as well as
 fixed interval period pulse generator and one-step timestamping in
 dpaa-eth.
 
 Add support for various auth offloads in WiFi APs, e.g. SAE (WPA3)
 offload.
 
 Add Lynx PHY/PCS MDIO module, and convert various drivers which have
 this HW to use it. Convert mvpp2 to split PCS.
 
 Support Marvell Prestera 98DX3255 24-port switch ASICs, as well as
 7-port Mediatek MT7531 IP.
 
 Add initial support for QCA6390 and IPQ6018 in ath11k WiFi driver,
 and wcn3680 support in wcn36xx.
 
 Improve performance for packets which don't require much offloads
 on recent Mellanox NICs by 20% by making multiple packets share
 a descriptor entry.
 
 Move chelsio inline crypto drivers (for TLS and IPsec) from the crypto
 subtree to drivers/net. Move MDIO drivers out of the phy directory.
 
 Clean up a lot of W=1 warnings, reportedly the actively developed
 subsections of networking drivers should now build W=1 warning free.
 
 Make sure drivers don't use in_interrupt() to dynamically adapt their
 code. Convert tasklets to use new tasklet_setup API (sadly this
 conversion is not yet complete).
