Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) Fix BPF filter validation of netlink attribute accesses, from
    Mathias Kruase.

 2) Netfilter conntrack generation seqcount not initialized properly,
    from Andrey Vagin.

 3) Fix comparison mask computation on big-endian in nft_cmp_fast(),
    from Patrick McHardy.

 4) Properly limit MTU over ipv6, from Eric Dumazet.

 5) Fix seccomp system call argument population on 32-bit, from Daniel
    Borkmann.

 6) skb_network_protocol() should not use hard-coded ETH_HLEN, instead
    skb->mac_len needs to be used.  From Vlad Yasevich.

 7) We have several cases of using socket based communications to
    implement a tunnel.  For example, some tunnels are encapsulations
    over UDP so we use an internal kernel UDP socket to do the
    transmits.

    These tunnels should behave just like other software devices and
    pass the packets on down to the next layer.

    Most importantly we want the top-level socket (eg TCP) that created
    the traffic to be charged for the SKB memory.

    However, once you get into the IP output path, we have code that
    assumed that whatever was attached to skb->sk is an IP socket.

    To keep the top-level socket being charged for the SKB memory,
    whilst satisfying the needs of the IP output path, we now pass in an
    explicit 'sk' argument.

    From Eric Dumazet.

 8) ping_init_sock() leaks group info, from Xiaoming Wang.
