Merge tag 'net-6.9-rc8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net

Pull networking fixes from Paolo Abeni:
 "Including fixes from bluetooth and IPsec.

  The bridge patch is actually a follow-up to a recent fix in the same
  area. We have a pending v6.8 AF_UNIX regression; it should be solved
  soon, but not in time for this PR.

  Current release - regressions:

   - eth: ks8851: Queue RX packets in IRQ handler instead of disabling
     BHs

   - net: bridge: fix corrupted ethernet header on multicast-to-unicast

  Current release - new code bugs:

   - xfrm: fix possible bad pointer derferencing in error path

  Previous releases - regressionis:

   - core: fix out-of-bounds access in ops_init

   - ipv6:
      - fix potential uninit-value access in __ip6_make_skb()
      - fib6_rules: avoid possible NULL dereference in fib6_rule_action()

   - tcp: use refcount_inc_not_zero() in tcp_twsk_unique().

   - rtnetlink: correct nested IFLA_VF_VLAN_LIST attribute validation

   - rxrpc: fix congestion control algorithm

   - bluetooth:
      - l2cap: fix slab-use-after-free in l2cap_connect()
      - msft: fix slab-use-after-free in msft_do_close()

   - eth: hns3: fix kernel crash when devlink reload during
     initialization

   - eth: dsa: mv88e6xxx: add phylink_get_caps for the mv88e6320/21
     family

  Previous releases - always broken:

   - xfrm: preserve vlan tags for transport mode software GRO

   - tcp: defer shutdown(SEND_SHUTDOWN) for TCP_SYN_RECV sockets

   - eth: hns3: keep using user config after hardware reset"
