net/packet: Ask driver for protocol if not provided by user
If a socket was created with socket(AF_PACKET, SOCK_RAW, 0), the protocol number is unavailable. Try to ask the driver to extract it from the L2 header in order for skb_try_probe_transport_header to succeed. Signed-off-by: Maxim Mikityanskiy <maximmi@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
