Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net

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.
