From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sat May 02 2015 - 15:25:58 EST


3.19-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tom Herbert <tom@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 3dfb05340ec6676e6fc71a9ae87bbbe66d3c2998 ]

Call checksum_complete_unset in PPP receive to discard checksum-complete
value. PPP does not pull checksum for headers and also modifies packet
as in VJ compression.
