      Pull rdma fixes from Doug Ledford:
 "A small collection of -rc fixes. Mostly. One API addition, but that's
  because we wanted to use it in a fix. There's also a bug fix that is
  going to render the 5.5 kernel's soft-RoCE driver incompatible with
  all soft-RoCE versions prior, but it's required to actually implement
  the protocol according to the RoCE spec and required in order for the
  soft-RoCE driver to be able to successfully work with actual RoCE
  hardware.

  Summary:

   - Update Steve Wise info

   - Fix for soft-RoCE crc calculations (will break back compatibility,
     but only with the soft-RoCE driver, which has had this bug since it
     was introduced and it is an on-the-wire bug, but will make
     soft-RoCE fully compatible with real RoCE hardware)

   - cma init fixup

   - counters oops fix

   - fix for mlx4 init/teardown sequence

   - fix for mkx5 steering rules

   - introduce a cleanup API, which isn't a fix, but we want to use it
     in the next fix

   - fix for mlx5 memory management that uses API in previous patch"

      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Pull ksys_mount() and ksys_dup() removal from Dominik Brodowski:
 "This small series replaces all in-kernel calls to the
  userspace-focused ksys_mount() and ksys_dup() with calls to
  kernel-centric functions:

  For each replacement of ksys_mount() with do_mount(), one needs to
  verify that the first and third parameter (char *dev_name, char *type)
  are strings allocated in kernelspace and that the fifth parameter
  (void *data) is either NULL or refers to a full page (only occurence
  in init/do_mounts.c::do_mount_root()). The second and fourth
  parameters (char *dir_name, unsigned long flags) are passed by
  ksys_mount() to do_mount() unchanged, and therefore do not require
  particular care.

  Moreover, instead of pretending to be userspace, the opening of
  /dev/console as stdin/stdout/stderr can be implemented using in-kernel
  functions as well. Thereby, ksys_dup() can be removed for good"

[ This doesn't get rid of the special "kernel init runs with KERNEL_DS"
  case, but it at least removes _some_ of the users of "treat kernel
  pointers as user pointers for our magical init sequence".

  One day we'll hopefully be rid of it all, and can initialize our
  init_thread addr_limit to USER_DS.    - Linus ]
