"The biggest change is to rename the filesystem from "overlayfs" to "overlay".
This will allow legacy overlayfs to be easily carried by distros alongside the

ASoC: Fixes for v3.18

As well as the usual driver fixes there's a few other things here:

One is a fix for a race in DPCM which is unfortuantely a rather large
diffstat, this is the result of growing usage of the mainline code and
hence more detailed testing so I'm relatively happy.

The other is a fix for non-DT machine driver matching following some of
the componentization work which is much more focused.

Both have had a while to cook in -next.

Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
"Most notable changes in here:

1) By far the biggest accomplishment, thanks to a large range of
contributors, is the addition of multi-send for transmit. This is
the result of discussions back in Chicago, and the hard work of
several individuals.

Now, when the ->ndo_start_xmit() method of a driver sees
skb->xmit_more as true, it can choose to defer the doorbell
telling the driver to start processing the new TX queue entires.

skb->xmit_more means that the generic networking is guaranteed to
call the driver immediately with another SKB to send.

There is logic added to the qdisc layer to dequeue multiple
packets at a time, and the handling mis-predicted offloads in
software is now done with no locks held.

Finally, pktgen is extended to have a "burst" parameter that can
be used to test a multi-send implementation.

Several drivers have xmit_more support: i40e, igb, ixgbe, mlx4,
virtio_net

Adding support is almost trivial, so export more drivers to
support this optimization soon.

I want to thank, in no particular or implied order, Jesper
Dangaard Brouer, Eric Dumazet, Alexander Duyck, Tom Herbert, Jamal
Hadi Salim, John Fastabend, Florian Westphal, Daniel Borkmann,
David Tat, Hannes Frederic Sowa, and Rusty Russell.

2) PTP and timestamping support in bnx2x, from Michal Kalderon.

3) Allow adjusting the rx_copybreak threshold for a driver via
ethtool, and add rx_copybreak support to enic driver. From
Govindarajulu Varadarajan.

4) Significant enhancements to the generic PHY layer and the bcm7xxx
driver in particular (EEE support, auto power down, etc.) from
Florian Fainelli.

5) Allow raw buffers to be used for flow dissection, allowing drivers
to determine the optimal "linear pull" size for devices that DMA
into pools of pages. The objective is to get exactly the
necessary amount of headers into the linear SKB area pre-pulled,
but no more. The new interface drivers use is eth_get_headlen().
From WANG Cong, with driver conversions (several had their own
by-hand duplicated implementations) by Alexander Duyck and Eric
Dumazet.

6) Support checksumming more smoothly and efficiently for
encapsulations, and add "foo over UDP" facility. From Tom
Herbert.

7) Add Broadcom SF2 switch driver to DSA layer, from Florian
Fainelli.

8) eBPF now can load programs via a system call and has an extensive
testsuite. Alexei Starovoitov and Daniel Borkmann.

9) Major overhaul of the packet scheduler to use RCU in several major
areas such as the classifiers and rate estimators. From John
Fastabend.

10) Add driver for Intel FM10000 Ethernet Switch, from Alexander
Duyck.

11) Rearrange TCP_SKB_CB() to reduce cache line misses, from Eric
Dumazet.

12) Add Datacenter TCP congestion control algorithm support, From
Florian Westphal.

13) Reorganize sk_buff so that __copy_skb_header() is significantly
faster. From Eric Dumazet"

Stefan Wahren says:

====================
add Qualcomm QCA7000 ethernet driver

This patch series adds support for the Qualcomm QCA7000 Homeplug GreenPHY.
The QCA7000 is serial-to-powerline bridge with two interfaces: UART and SPI.
These patches handles only the last one, with an Ethernet over SPI protocol
driver.

This driver based on the Qualcomm code [1], but contains a lot of changes
since last year:

* devicetree support
* DebugFS support
* ethtool support
* better error handling
* performance improvements
* code cleanup
* some bugfixes

The code has been tested only on Freescale i.MX28 boards, but should work
on other platforms.

[1] - https://github.com/IoE/qca7000

Changes in V3:
- Use ether_addr_copy instead of memcpy
- Remove qcaspi_set_mac_address
- Improve DT parsing
- replace OF_GPIO dependancy with OF
- fix compile error caused by SET_ETHTOOL_OPS
- fix possible endless loop when spi read fails
- fix DT documentation
- fix coding style
- fix sparse warnings

Changes in V2:
- replace in DT the SPI intr GPIO with pure interrupt
- make legacy mode a boolean DT property and remove it as module parameter
- make burst length a module parameter instead of DT property
- make pluggable a module parameter instead of DT property
- improve DT documentation
- replace debugFS register dump with ethtool function
- replace debugFS stats with ethtool function
- implement function to get ring parameter via ethtool
- implement function to set TX ring count via ethtool
- fix TX ring state in debugFS
- optimize tx ring flush
- add byte limit for TX ring to avoid bufferbloat
- fix TX queue full and write buffer miss counter
- fix SPI clk speed module parameter
- fix possible packet loss
- fix possible race during transmit
