Title:
  qeth: fix L3 next-hop im xmit qeth hdr

Status in Ubuntu on IBM z Systems:
  Fix Released
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in linux source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  == SRU Justification ==
  The current code accesses rtable->rt_gateway without checking that rtable
  is a valid address. The accidental access to a lowcore area results in a
  random next-hop address in the qeth_hdr.  rtable (or more precisely,
  skb_dst(skb)) can be NULL in rare cases (for instance together with AF_PACKET 
sockets).

  The solution is to add the missing NULL-ptr checks, which is done by
  commit ec2c6726322f.

  Commit ec2c6726322f is in mainline as of v4.13-rc5, so this fix is
  only needed in Xenial.

  == Fix ==
  ec2c6726322f ("s390/qeth: fix L3 next-hop in xmit qeth hdr")

  == Regression Potential ==
  Low.  Limited to s390.

  == Test Case ==
  A test kernel was built with this patch and tested by the original bug 
reporter.
  The bug reporter states the test kernel resolved the bug.

I'm not able to test this kernel, but this patch was verified upfront, before 
posting..

Bug description:
  Description:  qeth: fix L3 next-hop im xmit qeth hdr

  Symptom:  wrong destination address in qdio header

  Problem:  The current code accesses rtable->rt_gateway without checking
that rtable is a valid address. The accidental access to a
lowcore area results in a random next-hop address in the
qeth_hdr.
rtable (or more precisely, skb_dst(skb)) can be NULL in rare
cases (for instance together with AF_PACKET sockets).

  Solution: Add the missing NULL-ptr checks.
  Reproduction: AF_PACKET program sending raw data
