After much debugging, we have been able to spot silent unaligned accesses in inet_gro_receive() The issue at hand is that upper networking stacks assume their header is word-aligned. Low level drivers are supposed to reserve NET_IP_ALIGN bytes before the Ethernet header to make that happen. This patch hardens skb_gro_reset_offset() to not allow frag0 fast-path if the fragment is not properly aligned. Some arches like x86, arm64 and powerpc do not care and define NET_IP_ALIGN as 0, this extra check will be a NOP for them. Note that if frag0 is not used, GRO will call pskb_may_pull() as many times as needed to pull network and transport headers.
