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

Conflicts were simply overlapping changes.  In the net/ipv4/route.c
case the code had simply moved around a little bit and the same fix
was made in both 'net' and 'net-next'.

In the net/sched/sch_generic.c case a fix in 'net' happened at
the same time that a new argument was added to qdisc_hash_add().
