3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: "Jonathan T. Leighton" <jtleight@xxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit ec5e3b0a1d41fbda0cc33a45bc9e54e91d9d12c7 ] This patch adds a check for the problematic case of an IPv4-mapped IPv6 source address and a destination address that is neither an IPv4-mapped IPv6 address nor in6addr_any, and returns an appropriate error.
