====================
net: prevent infinite loop caused by incorrect proto from virtio_net_hdr_set_proto
These patches prevent an infinite loop for gso packets with a protocol
from virtio net hdr that doesn't match the protocol in the packet.
Note that packets coming from a device without
header_ops->parse_protocol being implemented will not be caught by
the check in virtio_net_hdr_to_skb, but the infinite loop will still
be prevented by the check in the gso layer.
Changes from v2 to v3:
- Remove unused *eth.
- Use MPLS_HLEN to also check if the MPLS header length is a multiple
of four.

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.
