[PATCH 4.4 71/92] net: test tailroom before appending to linear skb

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

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

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

From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 113f99c3358564a0647d444c2ae34e8b1abfd5b9 ]

Device features may change during transmission. In particular with
corking, a device may toggle scatter-gather in between allocating
and writing to an skb.

Do not unconditionally assume that !NETIF_F_SG at write time implies
that the same held at alloc time and thus the skb has sufficient
tailroom.

This issue predates git history.
