Subject: [PATCH 4.11 05/28] brcmfmac: Make skb header writable before use
Date: Thu, 11 May 2017 16:12:22 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170511141221.468006532@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170511141221.109842231@linuxfoundation.org>

4.11-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: James Hughes <james.hughes@raspberrypi.org>

commit 9cc4b7cb86cbcc6330a3faa8cd65268cd2d3c227 upstream.

The driver was making changes to the skb_header without
ensuring it was writable (i.e. uncloned).
This patch also removes some boiler plate header size
checking/adjustment code as that is also handled by the
skb_cow_header function used to make header writable.
