Pull networking fixes from David Miller: "Several small fixes here: 1) Don't crash in tg3 driver when the number of tx queues has been configured to be different from the number of rx queues. From Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo. 2) VLAN filter not disabled properly in promisc mode in ixgbe driver, from Vlad Yasevich. 3) Fix OOPS on dellink op in VTI tunnel driver, from Xin Long. 4) IPV6 GRE driver WCCP code checks skb->protocol for ETH_P_IP instead of ETH_P_IPV6, whoops. From Yuri Chislov. 5) Socket matching in ping driver is buggy when packet AF does not match socket's AF. Fix from Jane Zhou. 6) Fix checksum calculation errors in VXLAN due to where the udp_tunnel6_xmit_skb() helper gets it's saddr/daddr from. From Alexander Duyck. 7) Fix 5G detection problem in rtlwifi driver, from Larry Finger. 8) Fix NULL deref in tcp_v{4,6}_send_reset, from Eric Dumazet. 9) Various missing netlink attribute verifications in bridging code, from Thomas Graf. 10) tcp_recvmsg() unconditionally calls ipv4 ip_recv_error even for ipv6 sockets, whoops.

ovl: rename filesystem type to "overlay"

2014-11-20T15:39:59Z

Some distributions carry an "old" format of overlayfs while mainline has a "new" format. The distros will possibly want to keep the old overlayfs alongside the new for compatibility reasons. To make it possible to differentiate the two versions change the name of the new one from "overlayfs" to "overlay". Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi Reported-by: Serge Hallyn Cc: Andy Whitcroft
