[ Upstream commit 94579ac3f6d0820adc83b5dc5358ead0158101e9 ] During IPsec performance testing, we see bad ICMP checksum. The error packet has duplicated ESP trailer due to double validate_xmit_xfrm calls. The first call is from ip_output, but the packet cannot be sent because netif_xmit_frozen_or_stopped is true and the packet gets dev_requeue_skb. The second call is from NET_TX softirq. However after the first call, the packet already has the ESP trailer. Fix by marking the skb with XFRM_XMIT bit after the packet is handled by validate_xmit_xfrm to avoid duplicate ESP trailer insertion.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
