4.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Eric Dumazet <[email protected]> commit 9262478220eac908ae6e168c3df2c453c87e2da3 upstream. After commit 9facc336876f ("bpf: reject any prog that failed read-only lock") offsetof(struct bpf_binary_header, image) became 3 instead of 4, breaking powerpc BPF badly, since instructions need to be word aligned.
