Merge tag 'net-5.12-rc8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net

Pull networking fixes from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Networking fixes for 5.12-rc8, including fixes from netfilter, and
  bpf. BPF verifier changes stand out, otherwise things have slowed
  down.

  Current release - regressions:

   - gro: ensure frag0 meets IP header alignment

   - Revert "net: stmmac: re-init rx buffers when mac resume back"

   - ethernet: macb: fix the restore of cmp registers

  Previous releases - regressions:

   - ixgbe: Fix NULL pointer dereference in ethtool loopback test

   - ixgbe: fix unbalanced device enable/disable in suspend/resume

   - phy: marvell: fix detection of PHY on Topaz switches

   - make tcp_allowed_congestion_control readonly in non-init netns

   - xen-netback: Check for hotplug-status existence before watching

  Previous releases - always broken:

   - bpf: mitigate a speculative oob read of up to map value size by
     tightening the masking window

   - sctp: fix race condition in sctp_destroy_sock

   - sit, ip6_tunnel: Unregister catch-all devices

   - netfilter: nftables: clone set element expression template

   - netfilter: flowtable: fix NAT IPv6 offload mangling

   - net: geneve: check skb is large enough for IPv4/IPv6 header

   - netlink: don't call ->netlink_bind with table lock held"
