-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Patrick McHardy <[email protected]>
When IPv6 connection tracking splits up a defragmented packet into
its original fragments, the packets are taken from a list and are
passed to the network stack with skb->next still set. This causes
dev_hard_start_xmit to treat them as GSO fragments, resulting in
a use after free when connection tracking handles the next fragment.
