Subject: [AF_PACKET]: Remove bogus checks added to packet_sendmsg().
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b85daee0e497c8fe7c4dc3531674ede645b37cdf;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

[AF_PACKET]: Remove bogus checks added to packet_sendmsg().

These broke existing apps, and the checks are superfluous
as the values being verified aren't even used.
