514ac99c64 can: fix multiple delivery of a single CAN frame for overlapping CAN filters
The CAN_RAW socket can set multiple CAN identifier specific filters that lead
to multiple filters in the af_can.c filter processing. These filters are
indenpendent from each other which leads to logical OR'ed filters when applied.

This patch makes sure that every CAN frame which is filtered for a specific
socket is only delivered once to the user space. This is independent from the
number of matching CAN filters of this socket.

As the raw_rcv() function is executed from NET_RX softirq the introduced
variables are implemented as per-CPU variables to avoid extensive locking at
CAN frame reception time.

====================
ptp: remove open coded ns_to_timespec64 and reverse

This patch series is a follow up to the recent timespec64 work for the
PTP Hardware Clock drivers.  Arnd noticed that drivers are using open
coded implementations of ns_to_timespec64 and timespec64_to_ns.  This
series replaces the open coded logic with the helper functions.

The recent modifications to the macb driver lead to issues with the probe
function code flow. Here are some attempt to fix them.
This time, some more issues are fixed related to the clock as reported by Boris
Brezillon.

The series is written on top of net-next.

Changes in v2:
- address Cyrille comment about exit condition of queue configuration loop
- add fixes for probe sequence related to clocks
- add ethtool register dump

c69618b3e4 net/macb: fix probe sequence to setup clocks earlier
As accessing the peripheral registers need the clocks to be set, we have to
enable them as soon as possible. Their configuration depend on the type of
device used and determined by the DT compatible string. That lead to add
another initialization function in the DT configuration structure.
As the device private structure length depend on an information read in the
registers, we have to store the clock pointers in temporary variables before
feeding the structure fields.

Capabilities configuration by macb_configure_caps() was moved far too late by
421d9df062 (net/macb: merge at91_ether driver into macb driver) which would
lead to badly configured hardware.
So, move this function to early probe and modify its prototype to re-gain its
original behavior.
DT data retrieval is also moved to simplify the probe code flow.

to simplify the code that handles Rx and Tx default queue interrupts.

hv_netvsc: Eliminate memory allocation in the send path

The network protocol used to communicate with the host is the remote ndis (rndis)
protocol. We need to decorate each outgoing packet with a rndis header and
additional rndis state (rndis per-packet state). To manage this state, we
currently allocate memory in the transmit path. Eliminate this allocation by
requesting additional head room in the skb.

====================
netlink: access functions for IP address attributes

There are many places that read or write IP addresses to netlink attributes.
With IPv6 addresses, every such place currently has to use generic nla_put
and nla_memcpy. Implementing IPv6 address access functions simplify things
and makes the code more intelligible. IPv4 address access functions has
lesser value but it would be better to be consistent between IPv6 and IPv4
and they still serve as documentation.

The conversion is straightforward and the resulting patches are not that
large, thus I kept all the changes in the patches that introduce the access
functions. If anyone prefers to split the definition of access functions and
the conversion and/or break it out by network protocols, please let me know.

While doing the conversion, I came across ugly typecasting in
inetpeer_addr_base and xfrm_address_t when dealing with IPv6 addresses.
Instead of introducing more of this, I cleaned it up. Those are the first
two patches, serving as a prerequisite to the latter two.

930345ea63 netlink: implement nla_put_in_addr and nla_put_in6_addr
IP addresses are often stored in netlink attributes. Add generic functions
to do that.

For nla_put_in_addr, it would be nicer to pass struct in_addr but this is
not used universally throughout the kernel, in way too many places __be32 is
used to store IPv4 address.
