I'll use the net-next patches as the basis for the backport I do,
thanks.

Thanks, David. Please don't queue the earlier net patchset for stable.
I spotted an issue while converting to net-next, I'm afraid. I can send a
net v2 (as net-next won't apply), or a separate stable patch once 4.5 is cut.

[PATCH net-next 0/3] validate variable length ll headers

2016-03-09 Thread Willem de Bruijn 
From: Willem de Bruijn 

Allow device-specific validation of link layer headers. Existing
checks drop all packets shorter than hard_header_len. For variable
length protocols, such packets can be valid.

patch 1 adds header_ops.validate and dev_validate_header
patch 2 implements the protocol specific callback for AX25
patch 3 replaces ll_header_truncated with dev_validate_header

Willem de Bruijn (3):
  net: validate variable length ll headers
  ax25: add link layer header validation function
  packet: validate variable length ll headers
