Merge master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-2.6
* master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-2.6: [NETLINK]: Put {IFA,IFLA}_{RTA,PAYLOAD} macros back for userspace. [NET_SCHED] sch_htb: turn intermediate classes into leaves [NET_SCHED] sch_cbq: deactivating when grafting, purging etc. [XFRM]: Fix XFRMGRP_REPORT to use correct multicast group. [NET]: Force a cache line split in hh_cache in SMP. [NETPOLL]: make arp replies through netpoll use mac address of sender [NETLINK]: Restore API compatibility of address and neighbour bits [AX.25]: Fix default address and broadcast address initialization. [AX.25]: Constify ax25 utility functions [BNX2]: Add an error check. [NET]: Convert hh_lock to seqlock.
