4.2.8-ckt9 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 8e2ad4113ce4671686740f808ff2795395c39eef ]
The stack expects link layer headers in the skb linear section.
Macvtap can create skbs with llheader in frags in edge cases:
when (IFF_VNET_HDR is off or vnet_hdr.hdr_len < ETH_HLEN) and
prepad + len > PAGE_SIZE and vnet_hdr.flags has no or bad csum.
Add checks to ensure linear is always at least ETH_HLEN.
At this point, len is already ensured to be >= ETH_HLEN.
For backwards compatiblity, rounds up short vnet_hdr.hdr_len.
This differs from tap and packet, which return an error.
Fixes b9fb9ee07e67 ("macvtap: add GSO/csum offload support")
