[PATCH 2/5] bridge: Fix IPv6 multicast snooping by correcting offset in MLDv2 report
From: Linus LÃssing
Date: Tue Feb 15 2011 - 18:19:56 EST
We actually want a pointer to the grec_nsrcr and not the following
field. Otherwise we can get very high values for *nsrcs as the first two
bytes of the IPv6 multicast address are being used instead, leading to
a failing pskb_may_pull() which results in MLDv2 reports not being
parsed.
