Pull networking updates from David Miller:

 1) New offloading infrastructure and example 'rocker' driver for
    offloading of switching and routing to hardware.

    This work was done by a large group of dedicated individuals, not
    limited to: Scott Feldman, Jiri Pirko, Thomas Graf, John Fastabend,
    Jamal Hadi Salim, Andy Gospodarek, Florian Fainelli, Roopa Prabhu

 2) Start making the networking operate on IOV iterators instead of
    modifying iov objects in-situ during transfers.  Thanks to Al Viro
    and Herbert Xu.

 3) A set of new netlink interfaces for the TIPC stack, from Richard
    Alpe.

 4) Remove unnecessary looping during ipv6 routing lookups, from Martin
    KaFai Lau.

 5) Add PAUSE frame generation support to gianfar driver, from Matei
    Pavaluca.

 6) Allow for larger reordering levels in TCP, which are easily
    achievable in the real world right now, from Eric Dumazet.

 7) Add a variable of napi_schedule that doesn't need to disable cpu
    interrupts, from Eric Dumazet.

 8) Use a doubly linked list to optimize neigh_parms_release(), from
    Nicolas Dichtel.

 9) Various enhancements to the kernel BPF verifier, and allow eBPF
    programs to actually be attached to sockets.  From Alexei
    Starovoitov.

10) Support TSO/LSO in sunvnet driver, from David L Stevens.

11) Allow controlling ECN usage via routing metrics, from Florian
    Westphal.

12) Remote checksum offload, from Tom Herbert.

13) Add split-header receive, BQL, and xmit_more support to amd-xgbe
    driver, from Thomas Lendacky.

14) Add MPLS support to openvswitch, from Simon Horman.

15) Support wildcard tunnel endpoints in ipv6 tunnels, from Steffen
    Klassert.

16) Do gro flushes on a per-device basis using a timer, from Eric
    Dumazet.  This tries to resolve the conflicting goals between the
    desired handling of bulk vs.  RPC-like traffic.

17) Allow userspace to ask for the CPU upon what a packet was
    received/steered, via SO_INCOMING_CPU.  From Eric Dumazet.

18) Limit GSO packets to half the current congestion window, from Eric
    Dumazet.

19) Add a generic helper so that all drivers set their RSS keys in a
    consistent way, from Eric Dumazet.

20) Add xmit_more support to enic driver, from Govindarajulu
    Varadarajan.

21) Add VLAN packet scheduler action, from Jiri Pirko.

22) Support configurable RSS hash functions via ethtool, from Eyal
    Perry.

0cb6c969ed net, lib: kill arch_fast_hash library bits
As there are now no remaining users of arch_fast_hash(), lets kill
it entirely.

This basically reverts commit 71ae8aac3e ("lib: introduce arch
optimized hash library") and follow-up work, that is f.e., commit
237217546d ("lib: hash: follow-up fixups for arch hash"),
commit e3fec2f74f ("lib: Add missing arch generic-y entries for
asm-generic/hash.h") and last but not least commit 6a02652df5

a0e4467726 asm-generic: asm/io.h rewrite
While there normally is no reason to have a pull request for asm-generic
 but have all changes get merged through whichever tree needs them, I do
 have a series for 3.19. There are two sets of patches that change
 significant portions of asm/io.h, and this branch contains both in order
 to resolve the conflicts:
 
 - Will Deacon has done a set of patches to ensure that all architectures
   define {read,write}{b,w,l,q}_relaxed() functions or get them by
   including asm-generic/io.h. These functions are commonly used on ARM
   specific drivers to avoid expensive L2 cache synchronization implied by
   the normal {read,write}{b,w,l,q}, but we need to define them on all
   architectures in order to share the drivers across architectures and
   to enable CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST configurations for them
 
 - Thierry Reding has done an unrelated set of patches that extends
   the asm-generic/io.h file to the degree necessary to make it useful
   on ARM64 and potentially other architectures.

816fb4175c The "weak" attribute is commonly used for the default version of a
function, where an architecture can override it by providing a strong
 version.
 
 Some header file declarations included the "weak" attribute.  That's
 error-prone because it causes every implementation to be weak, with no
 strong version at all, and the linker chooses one based on link order.
 
 What we want is the "weak" attribute only on the *definition* of the
 default implementation.  These changes remove "weak" from the declarations,
 leaving it on the default definitions.

1b1a22b133 ARC: move common ops for line/full cache into helpers
INV cmd for dcache provides 2 modes discard or wback-before-discard.
One is default and other needs to be set, if so desired. This is common
for line-op/entire-cache-op. So refactor them out into a helper

Doesn't affect generated code but paves way for any common
micro-optimization.
