    xfrm: Linearize the skb after offloading if needed. · f015b900
    Sebastian Andrzej Siewior authored
    With offloading enabled, esp_xmit() gets invoked very late, from within
    validate_xmit_xfrm() which is after validate_xmit_skb() validates and
    linearizes the skb if the underlying device does not support fragments.
    
    esp_output_tail() may add a fragment to the skb while adding the auth
    tag/ IV. Devices without the proper support will then send skb->data
    points to with the correct length so the packet will have garbage at the
    end. A pcap sniffer will claim that the proper data has been sent since
    it parses the skb properly.
    
    It is not affected with INET_ESP_OFFLOAD disabled.
    
    Linearize the skb after offloading if the sending hardware requires it.
    It was tested on v4, v6 has been adopted.
