Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net

Conflicts:
	drivers/net/ethernet/altera/altera_sgdma.c
	net/netlink/af_netlink.c
	net/sched/cls_api.c
	net/sched/sch_api.c

The netlink conflict dealt with moving to netlink_capable() and
netlink_ns_capable() in the 'net' tree vs. supporting 'tc' operations
in non-init namespaces.  These were simple transformations from
netlink_capable to netlink_ns_capable.

The Altera driver conflict was simply code removal overlapping some
void pointer cast cleanups in net-next.
