This is a followup of commit 2558b8039d05 ("net: use a bounce
buffer for copying skb->mark")
x86 and powerpc define user_access_begin, meaning
that they are not able to perform user copy checks
when using user_write_access_begin() / unsafe_copy_to_user()
and friends [1]
Instead of waiting bugs to trigger on other arches,
add a check_object_size() in put_cmsg() to make sure
that new code tested on x86 with CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY=y
will perform more security checks.
[1] We can not generically call check_object_size() from
unsafe_copy_to_user() because UACCESS is enabled at this point.

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.
