3.16.42-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit e1edab87faf6ca30cd137e0795bc73aa9a9a22ec ] When IFF_VNET_HDR is enabled, a virtio_net header must precede data. Data length is verified to be greater than or equal to expected header length tun->vnet_hdr_sz before copying. Read this value once and cache locally, as it can be updated between the test and use (TOCTOU).
