David S. Miller 7c754e6a6c Merge branch 'dev_base_lock-remove'
Eric Dumazet says:

====================
net: complete dev_base_lock removal

Back in 2009 we started an effort to get rid of dev_base_lock
in favor of RCU.

It is time to finish this work.

Say goodbye to dev_base_lock !

v4: rebase, and move dev_addr_sem to net/core/dev.h in patch 06/13 (Jakub)

v3: I misread kbot reports, the issue was with dev->operstate (patch 10/13)
    So dev->reg_state is back to u8, and dev->operstate becomes an u32.
    Sorry for the noise.

v2: dev->reg_state must be a standard enum, some arches
    do not support cmpxchg() on u8.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
