[ Upstream commit 9aad13b0 ] Commit b84bbaf7 ("packet: in packet_snd start writing at link layer allocation") ensures that packet_snd always starts writing the link layer header in reserved headroom allocated for this purpose. This is needed because packets may be shorter than hard_header_len, in which case the space up to hard_header_len may be zeroed. But that necessary padding is not accounted for in skb->len. The fix, however, is buggy. It calls skb_push, which grows skb->len when moving skb->data back. But in this case packet length should not change. Instead, call skb_reserve, which moves both skb->data and skb->tail back, without changing length.
