Subject: [GIT]: Networking


Highlights:

1) Memory leak and ipv6 statistic fix for network namespaces from
Alexey Dobriyan.

2) Fixes and new device ID additions in wireless via John Linville
and co.

3) IPV6 default gateway selection fix from Pedro Ribeiro

4) Netfilter fixups from Patrick McHardy and Pablo Neira Ayuso:
a) an #ifdef got lost in a conversion, breaking defragmentation
handling in some configurations

b) ctnetlink and nf_nat have an awful dependency, and Pablo found
a clean way to get rid of it

c) ebtables missing dependency fix based upon build failure
report by Ingo

5) decnet should use offsetof() instead of hand-written version
that generates build warnings

Please pull, thanks a lot!

FYI, got a common build failure with latest -git, and bisected it back
to the commit above. Config attached, error log and bisect log below.

(The build failure output is at the bottom, it comes after dozens of
build warnings all across the kernel.)

We have to wrap ctnetlink_parse_nat_setup with CONFIG_NF_NAT_NEEDED,
I'll send you a patch asap. Sorry for the breakage.

Applied, thanks Pablo.

I'll look into cleaning up those conditional includes. Its getting
more and more complicated to even build-test all the combinations.

yeah - very often build errors in rare .config scenarios are canaries
for structural problems.

(We had such a situation in the x86 code recently: we had those quirky
x86 subarchitectures, and they were a constant source of build errors
that no real user actually cared about - because there were no active
users left. We modularized them into the main platform and we havent had
a single build bug in them in the last couple of months.)
