Antoine Tenart says:

====================
net-sysfs: fix race conditions in the xps code

This series fixes race conditions in the xps code, where out of bound
accesses can occur when dev->num_tc is updated, triggering oops. The
root cause is linked to locking issues. An explanation is given in each
of the commit logs.

We had a discussion on the v1 of this series about using the xps_map
mutex instead of the rtnl lock. While that seemed a better compromise,
v2 showed the added complexity wasn't best for fixes. So we decided to
go back to v1 and use the rtnl lock.

Because of this, the only differences between v1 and v3 are improvements
in the commit messages.

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.
