Subject: [GIT] Networking

1) The per-network-namespace loopback device, and thus it's namespace,
   can have it's teardown deferred for a long time if a kernel created
   TCP socket closes and the namespace is exiting meanwhile.  The
   kernel keeps trying to finish the close sequence until it times out
   (which takes quite some time).

   Fix this by forcing the socket closed in this situation, from Dan
   Streetman.

2) Fix regression where we're trying to invoke the update_pmtu method
   on route types (in this case metadata tunnel routes) that don't
   implement the dst_ops method.  Fix from Nicolas Dichtel.

3) Fix long standing memory corruption issues in r8169 driver by
   performing the chip statistics DMA programming more correctly.
   From Francois Romieu.

4) Handle local broadcast sends over VRF routes properly, from David
   Ahern.

5) Don't refire the DCCP CCID2 timer endlessly, otherwise the socket
   can never be released.  From Alexey Kodanev.

6) Set poll flags properly in VSOCK protocol layer, from Stefan
   Hajnoczi.

Please pull, thanks a lot!
