From f1791425cf0bcda43ab9a9a37df1ad3ccb1f6654 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Antonio Quartulli Date: Thu, 30 Jan 2014 00:12:24 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] batman-adv: properly check pskb_may_pull return value pskb_may_pull() returns 1 on success and 0 in case of failure, therefore checking for the return value being negative does not make sense at all. This way if the function fails we will probably read beyond the current skb data buffer. Fix this by doing the proper check.
