Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net
Two minor conflicts: 1) net/ipv4/route.c, adding a new local variable while moving another local variable and removing it's initial assignment. 2) drivers/net/dsa/microchip/ksz9477.c, overlapping changes. One pretty prints the port mode differently, whilst another changes the driver to try and obtain the port mode from the port node rather than the switch node. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

+8.25 KVM_CAP_S390_DIAG318
+-------------------------
+
+:Architectures: s390
+
+This capability enables a guest to set information about its control program
+(i.e. guest kernel type and version). The information is helpful during
+system/firmware service events, providing additional data about the guest
+environments running on the machine.
+
+The information is associated with the DIAGNOSE 0x318 instruction, which sets
+an 8-byte value consisting of a one-byte Control Program Name Code (CPNC) and
+a 7-byte Control Program Version Code (CPVC). The CPNC determines what
+environment the control program is running in (e.g. Linux, z/VM...), and the
+CPVC is used for information specific to OS (e.g. Linux version, Linux
+distribution...)
+
+If this capability is available, then the CPNC and CPVC can be synchronized
+between KVM and userspace via the sync regs mechanism (KVM_SYNC_DIAG318).
