4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 993675a3100b16a4c80dfd70cbcde8ea7127b31d ] If variable length link layer headers result in a packet shorter than dev->hard_header_len, reset the network header offset. Else skb->mac_len may exceed skb->len after skb_mac_reset_len. packet_sendmsg_spkt already has similar logic.
