Subject: net: __skb_flow_dissect() must cap its return value

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>


[ Upstream commit 34fad54c2537f7c99d07375e50cb30aa3c23bd83 ]

After Tom patch, thoff field could point past the end of the buffer,
this could fool some callers.

If an skb was provided, skb->len should be the upper limit.
If not, hlen is supposed to be the upper limit.
