Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) In TCP, don't register an FRTO for cumulatively ACK'd data that was
    previously SACK'd, from Neal Cardwell.

 2) Need to hold RNL mutex in ipv4 multicast code namespace cleanup,
    from Cong WANG.

 3) Similarly we have to hold RNL mutex for fib_rules_unregister(), also
    from Cong WANG.

 4) Revert and rework netns nsid allocation fix, from Nicolas Dichtel.

 5) When we encapsulate for a tunnel device, skb->sk still points to the
    user socket.  So this leads to cases where we retraverse the
    ipv4/ipv6 output path with skb->sk being of some other address
    family (f.e. AF_PACKET).  This can cause things to crash since the
    ipv4 output path is dereferencing an AF_PACKET socket as if it were
    an ipv4 one.

    The short term fix for 'net' and -stable is to elide these socket
    checks once we've entered an encapsulation sequence by testing
    xmit_recursion.

    Longer term we have a better solution wherein we pass the tunnel's
    socket down through the output paths, but that is way too invasive
    for 'net' and -stable.

    From Hannes Frederic Sowa.

 6) l2tp_init() failure path forgets to unregister per-net ops, from
    Cong WANG.
