s390/qeth: no ETH header for outbound AF_IUCV
[ Upstream commit acd9776b ] With AF_IUCV traffic, the skb passed to hard_start_xmit() has a 14 byte slot at skb->data, intended for an ETH header. qeth_l3_fill_af_iucv_hdr() fills this ETH header... and then immediately moves it to the skb's headroom, where it disappears and is never seen again. But it's still possible for us to return NETDEV_TX_BUSY after the skb has been modified. Since we didn't get a private copy of the skb, the next time the skb is delivered to hard_start_xmit() it no longer has the expected layout (we moved the ETH header to the headroom, so skb->data now starts at the IUCV_TRANS header). So when qeth_l3_fill_af_iucv_hdr() does another round of rebuilding, the resulting qeth header ends up all wrong. On transmission, the buffer is then rejected by the HiperSockets device with SBALF15 = x'04'. When this error is passed back to af_iucv as TX_NOTIFY_UNREACHABLE, it tears down the offending socket. As the ETH header for AF_IUCV serves no purpose, just align the code to what we do for IP traffic on L3 HiperSockets: keep the ETH header at skb->data, and pass down data_offset = ETH_HLEN to qeth_fill_buffer(). When mapping the payload into the SBAL elements, the ETH header is then stripped off. This avoids the skb manipulations in qeth_l3_fill_af_iucv_hdr(), and any buffer re-entering hard_start_xmit() after NETDEV_TX_BUSY is now processed properly.
