That said, I'm delaying this pull request due to the known issues with
it - let me know when you've updated it with the fix for the
use-after-free fixes and the slab corruptor (the latter of which I
haven't seen a patch for yet)

I've intergrated several bug fixes, including those for all of the
problems Ingo reported:

1) Non-netlink ipsec configurations fail to initialize
   replay info, resulting in OOPS.  Fix from Wei Yongjun.

2) L2TP marks l2tp_eth_net_ops as __net_initdata causing OOPS
   on module unload, fix from James Chapman.

3) lock_kernel removal regression fixes from Eric Dumazet and
   Arnd Bergmann.  Both IPX and Appletalk could release a socket
   while holding that socket's lock.

4) C_CAN driver enables interrupts before chip is actually ready,
   fix from Jan Altenberg.

5) Use after free in macvlan, fix from Eric W. Biederman.

6) ipv6 creates dup "neigh" sysfs directories, also from Eric
   W. Biederman.

7) VETH over-increments TX/RX byte counters, also from Eric
   W. Biederman.

8) Two IPVS bug fixes:
   a) Reverse NULL check after allocation, from Eric Dumazet.
   b) mutex lockdep key invalidly in dynamic memory, fix from
      Simon Horman.

Please pull, thanks a lot:
