nit: please un-indent the text, you can keep the stack trace indented
but the commit message explanation should not be. And if you can
run the stack trace thru decode_stacktrace to add source code
references.
This patch seems to be causing regressions for SCTP, see:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/aC82JEehNShMjW8-@strlen.de/
If you send a v2 please make sure you add test cases to
net/core/net_test.c for both the geometry you're trying to fix,
and the geometry you got wrong in v1.
