[GIT] Networking

From: David Miller

The most important bit here is the TCP syncookies issue, which seems
to have been busted for some time. That fix has been verified in
production by the reporter.

1) Persistent TUN devices erroneously hold on to the network
namespace in such a way that it cannot be shutdown. Fix
from Stanislav Kinsbursky with help from Eric Dumazet.

2) TCP SYN cookies have been broken for a while due to how the route
lookup flow key is managed, connections can be delayed by as much
as 20 seconds due to this bug. Fix from Eric Dumazet.

3) Missing jiffies.h include in lib/dynamic_queue_limits.c can break
the build, from Tom Herbert.

4) Add USB device ID for Sitecom LN-031, from Joerg Neikes.

5) Fix OOPS in delayed workqueue in iwlegacy, from Stanislaw Gruszka.

6) rt2x00 TX queue can be disabled forever due to races, fix by
synchronizing pause/unpause with a lock. Also from Stanislaw
Gruszka.

7) Statistics and endian fix in bnx2x driver from Yuval Mintz,
Eilon Greenstein, and Ariel Elior.

Please pull, thanks a lot.
