Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net
Trivial conflicts in net/can/isotp.c and tools/testing/selftests/net/mptcp/mptcp_connect.sh scaled_ppm_to_ppb() was moved from drivers/ptp/ptp_clock.c to include/linux/ptp_clock_kernel.h in -next so re-apply the fix there. Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
