From: Liping Zhang <zlpnob...@gmail.com> For sw_flow_actions, the actions_len only represents the kernel part's size, and when we dump the actions to the userspace, we will do the convertions, so it's true size may become bigger than the actions_len.
But unfortunately, for OVS_PACKET_ATTR_ACTIONS, we use the actions_len to alloc the skbuff, so the user_skb's size may become insufficient and oops will happen like this: skbuff: skb_over_panic: text:ffffffff8148fabf len:1749 put:157 head: ffff881300f39000 data:ffff881300f39000 tail:0x6d5 end:0x6c0 dev:<NULL> ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at net/core/skbuff.c:129!

Last, this oops happened on our system running a relative old kernel, but the same risk still exists on the mainline, since we use the wrong actions_len from the beginning.
