Linus Torvalds 6714ebb922 Including fixes from bpf and netfilter.
Current release - regressions:
 
   - af_unix: fix another unix GC hangup
 
 Previous releases - regressions:
 
   - core: fix a possible AF_UNIX deadlock
 
   - bpf: fix NULL pointer dereference in sk_psock_verdict_data_ready()
 
   - netfilter: nft_flow_offload: release dst in case direct xmit path is used
 
   - bridge: switchdev: ensure MDB events are delivered exactly once
 
   - l2tp: pass correct message length to ip6_append_data
 
   - dccp/tcp: unhash sk from ehash for tb2 alloc failure after check_estalblished()
 
   - tls: fixes for record type handling with PEEK
 
   - devlink: fix possible use-after-free and memory leaks in devlink_init()
 
 Previous releases - always broken:
 
   - bpf: fix an oops when attempting to read the vsyscall
   	 page through bpf_probe_read_kernel
 
   - sched: act_mirred: use the backlog for mirred ingress
 
   - netfilter: nft_flow_offload: fix dst refcount underflow
 
   - ipv6: sr: fix possible use-after-free and null-ptr-deref
 
   - mptcp: fix several data races
 
   - phonet: take correct lock to peek at the RX queue
 
 Misc:
 
   - handful of fixes and reliability improvements for selftests
