The following stack of patches applies cleanly to 5.15.166
(original SHA1s, git log order, so inverse of order to apply):

89add40066f9e net: drop bad gso csum_start and offset in virtio_net_hdr
9840036786d9 gso: fix dodgy bit handling for GSO_UDP_L4
fc8b2a619469 net: more strict VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP_L4 validation

All three are already present in 6.1.109

Please let me know if I should send that stack using git send-email,
or whether this is sufficient into to backport.

The third commit has one Fixes referencing them:

1382e3b6a350 net: change maximum number of UDP segments to 128

This simple -2/+2 line patch unfortunately cannot be backported
without conflicts without backporting non-stable feature changes.
There is a backport to 6.1.y, but that also won't apply cleanly to
5.15.166 without backporting a feature (e2a4392b61f6 "udp: introduce
udp->udp_flags"), which itself does not apply cleanly.

So simplest is probably to fix up this commit and send it using git
send-email. I can do that as part of the stack with the above 3
patches, or stand-alone if the above can be cherry-picked by SHA1.

Thanks,

    Willem
