ASoC: Fixes for v6.18

A moderately large collection of driver specific fixes, plus a few new
quirks and device IDs. The NAU8821 changes are a little large but more
in mechanical ways than in ways that are complex.

Merge tag 'net-next-6.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"Core & protocols:

- Improve drop account scalability on NUMA hosts for RAW and UDP
sockets and the backlog, almost doubling the Pps capacity under DoS

- Optimize the UDP RX performance under stress, reducing contention,
revisiting the binary layout of the involved data structs and
implementing NUMA-aware locking. This improves UDP RX performance
by an additional 50%, even more under extreme conditions

- Add support for PSP encryption of TCP connections; this mechanism
has some similarities with IPsec and TLS, but offers superior HW
offloads capabilities

- Ongoing work to support Accurate ECN for TCP. AccECN allows more
than one congestion notification signal per RTT and is a building
block for Low Latency, Low Loss, and Scalable Throughput (L4S)

- Reorganize the TCP socket binary layout for data locality, reducing
the number of touched cachelines in the fastpath

- Refactor skb deferral free to better scale on large multi-NUMA
hosts, this improves TCP and UDP RX performances significantly on
such HW

- Increase the default socket memory buffer limits from 256K to 4M to
better fit modern link speeds

- Improve handling of setups with a large number of nexthop, making
dump operating scaling linearly and avoiding unneeded
synchronize_rcu() on delete

- Improve bridge handling of VLAN FDB, storing a single entry per
bridge instead of one entry per port; this makes the dump order of
magnitude faster on large switches

- Restore IP ID correctly for encapsulated packets at GSO
segmentation time, allowing GRO to merge packets in more scenarios

- Improve netfilter matching performance on large sets

- Improve MPTCP receive path performance by leveraging recently
introduced core infrastructure (skb deferral free) and adopting
recent TCP autotuning changes

- Allow bridges to redirect to a backup port when the bridge port is
administratively down

- Introduce MPTCP 'laminar' endpoint that con be used only once per
connection and simplify common MPTCP setups

- Add RCU safety to dst->dev, closing a lot of possible races

- A significant crypto library API for SCTP, MPTCP and IPv6 SR,
reducing code duplication

- Supports pulling data from an skb frag into the linear area of an
XDP buffer

Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:

- Generate netlink documentation from YAML using an integrated YAML
parser

Driver API:

- Support using IPv6 Flow Label in Rx hash computation and RSS queue
selection

- Introduce API for fetching the DMA device for a given queue,
allowing TCP zerocopy RX on more H/W setups

- Make XDP helpers compatible with unreadable memory, allowing more
easily building DevMem-enabled drivers with a unified XDP/skbs
datapath

- Add a new dedicated ethtool callback enabling drivers to provide
the number of RX rings directly, improving efficiency and clarity
in RX ring queries and RSS configuration

- Introduce a burst period for the health reporter, allowing better
handling of multiple errors due to the same root cause

- Support for DPLL phase offset exponential moving average,
controlling the average smoothing factor

- Add a new Huawei driver for 3rd gen NIC (hinic3)

- Add a new SpacemiT driver for K1 ethernet MAC

- Add a generic abstraction for shared memory communication
devices (dibps)

Merge branch 'selftest-packetdrill-import-tfo-server-tests'

Kuniyuki Iwashima says:

====================
selftest: packetdrill: Import TFO server tests.

The series imports 15 TFO server tests from google/packetdrill and
adds 2 more tests.

The repository has two versions of tests for most scenarios; one uses
the non-experimental option (34), and the other uses the experimental
option (255) with 0xF989.

Basically, we only import the non-experimental version of tests, and
for the experimental option, tcp_fastopen_server_experimental_option.pkt
is added.

The following tests are not (yet) imported:

* icmp-baseline.pkt
* simple1.pkt / simple2.pkt / simple3.pkt

The former is completely covered by icmp-before-accept.pkt.

The later's delta is the src/dst IP pair to generate a different
cookie, but supporting dualstack requires churn in ksft_runner.sh,
so defered to future series. Also, sockopt-fastopen-key.pkt covers
the same function.

The following tests have the experimental version only, so converted
to the non-experimental option:

* client-ack-dropped-then-recovery-ms-timestamps.pkt
* sockopt-fastopen-key.pkt

For the imported tests, these common changes are applied.

* Add SPDX header
* Adjust path to default.sh
* Adjust sysctl w/ set_sysctls.py
* Use TFO_COOKIE instead of a raw hex value
* Use SOCK_NONBLOCK for socket() not to block accept()
* Add assertions for TCP state if commented
* Remove unnecessary delay (e.g. +0.1 setsockopt(SO_REUSEADDR), etc)

With this series, except for simple{1,2,3}.pkt, we can remove TFO server
tests in google/packetdrill.

selftest: packetdrill: Import opt34/reset-* tests.

This imports the non-experimental version of opt34/reset-*.pkt.

| Child | RST | sk_err |
---------------------------------+---------+-------------------------------+---------+
reset-after-accept.pkt | TFO | after accept(), SYN_RECV | read() |
reset-close-with-unread-data.pkt | TFO | after accept(), SYN_RECV | write() |
reset-before-accept.pkt | TFO | before accept(), SYN_RECV | read() |
reset-non-tfo-socket.pkt | non-TFO | before accept(), ESTABLISHED | write() |

The first 3 files test scenarios where a SYN_RECV socket receives RST
before/after accept() and data in SYN must be read() without error,
but the following read() or fist write() will return ECONNRESET.

The last test is similar but with non-TFO socket.
