<content type='text'>
In isdn_ppp_write(), the header (i.e., protobuf) of the buffer is
fetched twice from userspace. The first fetch is used to peek at the
protocol of the message and reset the huptimer if necessary; while the
second fetch copies in the whole buffer. However, given that buf resides
in userspace memory, a user process can race to change its memory content
across fetches. By doing so, we can either avoid resetting the huptimer
for any type of packets (by first setting proto to PPP_LCP and later
change to the actual type) or force resetting the huptimer for LCP
packets.

This patch changes this double-fetch behavior into two single fetches
decided by condition (lp-&gt;isdn_device &lt; 0 || lp-&gt;isdn_channel &lt;0).

gcc-7 found an ancient bug in the loop driver, leading to a condition that
is always false, meaning we ignore the contents of 'card-&gt;flags' here:

drivers/isdn/isdnloop/isdnloop.c:412:37: error: ?: using integer constants in boolean context, the expression will always evaluate to 'true' [-Werror=int-in-bool-context]

This changes the braces in the expression to ensure we actually
compare the flag bits, rather than comparing a constant. As Joe Perches
pointed out, an earlier patch of mine incorrectly assumed this was a
false-positive warning.

If mISDN_FsmNew() fails to allocate memory for jumpmatrix
then null pointer dereference will occur on any write to
jumpmatrix.

The patch adds check on successful allocation and
corresponding error handling.

The UDP offload conflict is dealt with by simply taking what is
in net-next where we have removed all of the UFO handling code
entirely.

The TCP conflict was a case of local variables in a function
being removed from both net and net-next.

In netvsc we had an assignment right next to where a missing
set of u64 stats sync object inits were added.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
 "The pull requests are getting smaller, that's progress I suppose :-)

   1) Fix infinite loop in CIPSO option parsing, from Yujuan Qi.

   2) Fix remote checksum handling in VXLAN and GUE tunneling drivers,
      from Koichiro Den.

   3) Missing u64_stats_init() calls in several drivers, from Florian
      Fainelli.

   4) TCP can set the congestion window to an invalid ssthresh value
      after congestion window reductions, from Yuchung Cheng.

   5) Fix BPF jit branch generation on s390, from Daniel Borkmann.

   6) Correct MIPS ebpf JIT merge, from David Daney.

   7) Correct byte order test in BPF test_verifier.c, from Daniel
      Borkmann.

   8) Fix various crashes and leaks in ASIX driver, from Dean Jenkins.

   9) Handle SCTP checksums properly in mlx4 driver, from Davide
      Caratti.

  10) We can potentially enter tcp_connect() with a cached route
      already, due to fastopen, so we have to explicitly invalidate it.

  11) skb_warn_bad_offload() can bark in legitimate situations, fix from
      Willem de Bruijn"

The synchronization type that was used earlier to guard the loop that
deletes unused log buffers may lead to a situation that prevents any
thread from going through the loop.

The patch deletes previously used synchronization mechanism and moves
the loop under the spin_lock so the similar cases won't be feasible in
the future.
