Subject: [PATCH net v1 0/3] act_gate fixes and gate selftest update

This series fixes act_gate schedule update races by switching to an RCU
prepare-then-swap update pattern and ensures netlink dump structs are
zeroed to avoid leaking padding to userspace. It also updates the
tc-testing gate replace test to include the mandatory schedule entries
so the test suite reflects the action's strict semantics.

Paul Moses (3):
  selftests: tc-testing: fix gate replace schedule
  net/sched: act_gate: fix schedule updates with RCU swap
  net/sched: act_gate: zero-initialize netlink dump struct
