From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 46e4c421a053c36bf7a33dda2272481bcaf3eed3 ] In one error case, tpacket_rcv drops packets after incrementing the ring producer index. If this happens, it does not update tp_status to TP_STATUS_USER and thus the reader is stalled for an iteration of the ring, causing out of order arrival. The only such error path is when virtio_net_hdr_from_skb fails due to encountering an unknown GSO type. Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
