Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/3] tipc: improve broadcast NACK mechanism

The broadcast protocol has turned out to not scale well beyond 70-80
nodes, while it is now possible to build TIPC clusters of at least ten
times that size. This commit series improves the NACK/retransmission
mechanism of the broadcast protocol to make is at scalable as the rest
of TIPC.

Jon Maloy (3):
  tipc: transfer broadcast nacks in link state messages
  tipc: rate limit broadcast retransmissions
  tipc: send broadcast nack directly upon sequence gap detection
