Linus Torvalds ce55c22ec8 Including fixes from bluetooth, netfilter, WiFi.
Feels like an up-tick in regression fixes, mostly for older releases.
 The hfsc fix, tcp_disconnect() and Intel WWAN fixes stand out as fairly
 clear-cut user reported regressions. The mlx5 DMA bug was causing strife
 for 390x folks. The fixes themselves are not particularly scary, tho.
 No open investigations / outstanding reports at the time of writing.
 
 Current release - regressions:
 
  - eth: mlx5: perform DMA operations in the right locations,
    make devices usable on s390x, again
 
  - sched: sch_hfsc: upgrade 'rt' to 'sc' when it becomes a inner curve,
    previous fix of rejecting invalid config broke some scripts
 
  - rfkill: reduce data->mtx scope in rfkill_fop_open, avoid deadlock
 
  - revert "ethtool: Fix mod state of verbose no_mask bitset",
    needs more work
 
 Current release - new code bugs:
 
  - tcp: fix listen() warning with v4-mapped-v6 address
 
 Previous releases - regressions:
 
  - tcp: allow tcp_disconnect() again when threads are waiting,
    it was denied to plug a constant source of bugs but turns out
    .NET depends on it
 
  - eth: mlx5: fix double-free if buffer refill fails under OOM
 
  - revert "net: wwan: iosm: enable runtime pm support for 7560",
    it's causing regressions and the WWAN team at Intel disappeared
 
  - tcp: tsq: relax tcp_small_queue_check() when rtx queue contains
    a single skb, fix single-stream perf regression on some devices
 
 Previous releases - always broken:
 
  - Bluetooth:
    - fix issues in legacy BR/EDR PIN code pairing
    - correctly bounds check and pad HCI_MON_NEW_INDEX name
 
  - netfilter:
    - more fixes / follow ups for the large "commit protocol" rework,
      which went in as a fix to 6.5
    - fix null-derefs on netlink attrs which user may not pass in
 
  - tcp: fix excessive TLP and RACK timeouts from HZ rounding
    (bless Debian for keeping HZ=250 alive)
 
  - net: more strict VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP_L4 validation, prevent
    letting frankenstein UDP super-frames from getting into the stack
 
  - net: fix interface altnames when ifc moves to a new namespace
 
  - eth: qed: fix the size of the RX buffers
 
  - mptcp: avoid sending RST when closing the initial subflow

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
