Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net
All of the conflicts were cases of overlapping changes. In net/core/devlink.c, we have to make care that the resouce size_params have become a struct member rather than a pointer to such an object. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <[email protected]>
