4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit da7c9561015e93d10fe6aab73e9288e0d09d65a6 ] Packet socket option po->has_vnet_hdr can be updated concurrently with other operations if no ring is attached. Do not test the option twice in packet_snd, as the value may change in between calls. A race on setsockopt disable may cause a packet > mtu to be sent without having GSO options set.
