Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net
Conflicts: net/ipv6/xfrm6_output.c net/openvswitch/flow_netlink.c net/openvswitch/vport-gre.c net/openvswitch/vport-vxlan.c net/openvswitch/vport.c net/openvswitch/vport.h The openvswitch conflicts were overlapping changes. One was the egress tunnel info fix in 'net' and the other was the vport ->send() op simplification in 'net-next'. The xfrm6_output.c conflicts was also a simplification overlapping a bug fix.
