3.16.7-ckt17 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me 
know.

------------------

From: Alexander Drozdov <[email protected]>

commit dbd46ab412b8fb395f2b0ff6f6a7eec9df311550 upstream.

tpacket_fill_skb() can return a negative value (-errno) which
is stored in tp_len variable. In that case the following
condition will be (but shouldn't be) true:

tp_len > dev->mtu + dev->hard_header_len

as dev->mtu and dev->hard_header_len are both unsigned.

That may lead to just returning an incorrect EMSGSIZE errno
to the user.

Fixes: 52f1454f629fa ("packet: allow to transmit +4 byte in TX_RING slot for 
VLAN case")
