From: Antonio Quartulli Date: Sat, 15 Feb 2014 20:50:37 +0000 (+0100) Subject: batman-adv: fix potential kernel paging error for unicast transmissions X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=70b271a78beba787155d6696aacd7c4d4a251c50;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git batman-adv: fix potential kernel paging error for unicast transmissions batadv_send_skb_prepare_unicast(_4addr) might reallocate the skb's data. If it does then our ethhdr pointer is not valid anymore in batadv_send_skb_unicast(), resulting in a kernel paging error. Fixing this by refetching the ethhdr pointer after the potential reallocation.
