Merge branch 'per-netns-notifier'
Jiri Pirko says: ==================== net: introduce per-netns netdevice notifiers and use them in mlxsw Some drivers, like mlxsw, are not interested in notifications coming in for netdevices from other network namespaces. So introduce per-netns notifiers and allow to reduce overhead by listening only for notifications from the same netns. This is also a preparation for upcoming patchset "devlink: allow devlink instances to change network namespace". This resolves deadlock during reload mlxsw into initial netns made possible by 328fbe747ad4 ("net: Close race between {un, }register_netdevice_notifier() and setup_net()/cleanup_net()"). ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
