3.11-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 3da812d860755925da890e8c713f2d2e2d7b1bae ]
gre_hlen already accounts for sizeof(struct ipv6_hdr) + gre header,
so initialize max_headroom to zero. Otherwise the
if (encap_limit >= 0) {
max_headroom += 8;
mtu -= 8;
}
increments an uninitialized variable before max_headroom was reset.
