Dumazet.

3) Networking user namespace support from Eric W. Biederman.

4) tuntap/virtio-net multiqueue support by Jason Wang.

Merge branch 'for-davem' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-next

John W. Linville says:

====================
Included is a Bluetooth pull -- Gustavo says:

"These are the Bluetooth bits for inclusion in 3.8, there is basically one big
thing here which is the High Speed patches from Andrei, he did a lot of work on
A2MP and management of AMP devices. The rest are mostly clean up and bug
fixes."

Also included is an NFC pull -- Samuel says:

"With this one we have:

- pn544 p2p support.
- pn544 physical and HCI layers separation. We are getting the pn544 driver
ready to support non i2c physical layers.
- LLCP SNL (Service Name Lookup). This is the NFC p2p service discovery
protocol.
- LLCP datagram sockets (connection less) support.
- IDR library usage for NFC devices indexes assignement.
- NFC netlink extension for setting and getting LLCP link characteristics.
- Various code style fixes and cleanups spread over the pn533, LLCP, HCI and
pn544 code."

There are a couple of mac80211 pulls as well -- Johannes says:

"Please pull my mac80211-next tree to get the first round of new features
for 3.8. We have:
* finally, the mac80211 multi-channel work
* scan improvements:
- bg scan
- scan flush
- forced AP scan
* cfg80211 tracing
* a bit of new code to allow implementing SAE (secure authentication of
equals) in managed mode

Along with a few random improvements, features and fixes."

and...

"Please pull from mac80211-next (per below pull request) to get a few
updates. Most important is probably the fix for the WDS regression that
my previous pull request introduced. Other than that, I have some
tracing code, two mesh updates and a change to allow drivers to
calculate the AES CMAC subkeys without having to implement the GF_mulx
operation themselves."

On top of that are the usual updates to iwlwifi, ath9k, rt2x00,
brcmfmac, mwifiex, and a few others here and there. Of note is the
addition of the ar5523 driver, ported from an original FreeBSD driver.

Merge tag 'v3.7-rc2' into drm-intel-next-queued

Linux 3.7-rc2

Backmerge to solve two ugly conflicts:
- uapi. We've already added new ioctl definitions for -next. Do I need to say more?
- wc support gtt ptes. We've had to revert this for snb+ for 3.7 and
also fix a few other things in the code. Now we know how to make it
work on snb+, but to avoid losing the other fixes do the backmerge
first before re-enabling wc gtt ptes on snb+.

And a few other minor things, among them git getting confused in
intel_dp.c and seemingly causing a conflict out of nothing ...

bcma: use fallback sprom if sprom on card was not valid

Sometimes the PCIe card indicates that it has a sprom somewhere and we
are able to read the memory region, but it is empty and not valid. In
these cases we should try to use the fallback sprom as a last chance.

This is the case for the PCIe cards in my ASUS RT-N66U (BCM4706 + 2
times BCM4331) and I have heard of someone having the same problem with
an other PCIe card connected to an other Broadcom SoC.

Merge commit '5bc66170dc486556a1e36fd384463536573f4b82' into x86/urgent

From Borislav Petkov <bp@amd64.org>:

Below is a RAS fix which reverts the addition of a sysfs attribute
which we agreed is not needed, post-factum. And this should go in now
because that sysfs attribute is going to end up in 3.7 otherwise and
thus exposed to userspace; removing it then would be a lot harder.

This is done as a merge rather than a simple patch/cherry-pick since
the baseline for this patch was not in the previous x86/urgent.
