3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Thomas Graf <[email protected]> [ Upstream commit 237114384ab22c174ec4641e809f8e6cbcfce774 ] VETH_INFO_PEER carries struct ifinfomsg plus optional IFLA attributes. A minimal size of sizeof(struct ifinfomsg) must be enforced or we may risk accessing that struct beyond the limits of the netlink message.
