Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
1) Fix endless loop in nf_tables, from Phil Sutter.
2) Fix cross namespace ip6_gre tunnel hash list corruption, from
Olivier Matz.
3) Don't be too strict in phy_start_aneg() otherwise we might not allow
restarting auto negotiation. From Heiner Kallweit.
4) Fix various KMSAN uninitialized value cases in tipc, from Ying Xue.
5) Memory leak in act_tunnel_key, from Davide Caratti.
6) Handle chip errata of mv88e6390 PHY, from Andrew Lunn.
7) Remove linear SKB assumption in fou/fou6, from Eric Dumazet.
8) Missing udplite rehash callbacks, from Alexey Kodanev.
9) Log dirty pages properly in vhost, from Jason Wang.
10) Use consume_skb() in neigh_probe() as this is a normal free not a
drop, from Yang Wei. Likewise in macvlan_process_broadcast().
11) Missing device_del() in mdiobus_register() error paths, from Thomas
Petazzoni.
12) Fix checksum handling of short packets in mlx5, from Cong Wang.
