Merge tag 'net-6.18-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net

Pull networking fixes from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Including fixes from can. Slim pickings, I'm guessing people haven't
  really started testing.

  Current release - new code bugs:

   - eth: mlx5e:
       - psp: avoid 'accel' NULL pointer dereference
       - skip PPHCR register query for FEC histogram if not supported

  Previous releases - regressions:

   - bonding: update the slave array for broadcast mode

   - rtnetlink: re-allow deleting FDB entries in user namespace

   - eth: dpaa2: fix the pointer passed to PTR_ALIGN on Tx path

  Previous releases - always broken:

   - can: drop skb on xmit if device is in listen-only mode

   - gro: clear skb_shinfo(skb)->hwtstamps in napi_reuse_skb()

   - eth: mlx5e
       - RX, fix generating skb from non-linear xdp_buff if program
         trims frags
       - make devcom init failures non-fatal, fix races with IPSec

  Misc:

   - some documentation formatting 'fixes'"
