4.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Haggai Eran <haggai.eran@xxxxxxxxx> commit cab462140f8a183e3cca0b51c8b59ef715cb6148 upstream. With an RTL8191SU USB adaptor, sometimes the hints for a fragmented packet are set, but the packet length is too large. Allocate enough space to prevent memory corruption and a resulting kernel panic [1].
