3.10-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.
