[ Upstream commit 3020ca711871fdaf0c15c8bab677a6bc302e28fe ]

The VSync polarity was negative instead of positive for the 4k CEA formats.
I probably copy-and-pasted these from the DMT 4k format, which does have a
negative VSync polarity.

[ Upstream commit 8013d1d7eafb0589ca766db6b74026f76b7f5cb4 ]

Commit 6fd99094de2b ("ipv6: Don't reduce hop limit for an interface")
disabled accept hop limit from RA if it is smaller than the current hop
limit for security stuff. But this behavior kind of break the RFC definition.

RFC 4861, 6.3.4.  Processing Received Router Advertisements
   A Router Advertisement field (e.g., Cur Hop Limit, Reachable Time,
   and Retrans Timer) may contain a value denoting that it is
   unspecified.  In such cases, the parameter should be ignored and the
   host should continue using whatever value it is already using.

   If the received Cur Hop Limit value is non-zero, the host SHOULD set
   its CurHopLimit variable to the received value.

So add sysctl option accept_ra_min_hop_limit to let user choose the minimum
hop limit value they can accept from RA. And set default to 1 to meet RFC
standards.

commit c9ddbac9c89110f77cb0fa07e634aaf1194899aa upstream.

09a2c73ddfc7 ("PCI: Remove unused PCI_MSIX_FLAGS_BIRMASK definition")
removed PCI_MSIX_FLAGS_BIRMASK from an exported header because it was
unused in the kernel.  But that breaks user programs that were using it
(QEMU in particular).

Restore the PCI_MSIX_FLAGS_BIRMASK definition.

====================
The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for your net tree, they are:

1) Fix a leak in IPVS, the sysctl table is not released accordingly when
   destroying a netns, patch from Tommi Rantala.

2) Fix a build error when TPROXY and socket are built-in but IPv6 defrag is
   compiled as module, from Florian Westphal.

3) Fix TCP tracket wrt. RFC5961 challenge ACK when in LAST_ACK state, patch
   from Jesper Dangaard Brouer.

4) Fix a bogus WARN_ON() in nf_tables when deleting a set element that stores
   a map, from Mirek Kratochvil.

<title>conntrack: RFC5961 challenge ACK confuse conntrack LAST-ACK transition</title>

<content type='text'>
In compliance with RFC5961, the network stack send challenge ACK in
response to spurious SYN packets, since commit 0c228e833c88 ("tcp:
Restore RFC5961-compliant behavior for SYN packets").

This pose a problem for netfilter conntrack in state LAST_ACK, because
this challenge ACK is (falsely) seen as ACKing last FIN, causing a
false state transition (into TIME_WAIT).

The challenge ACK is hard to distinguish from real last ACK.  Thus,
solution introduce a flag that tracks the potential for seeing a
challenge ACK, in case a SYN packet is let through and current state
is LAST_ACK.

When conntrack transition LAST_ACK to TIME_WAIT happens, this flag is
used for determining if we are expecting a challenge ACK.
