This seems fine itself, but br_send_bpdu() invokes ebtables LOCAL_OUT. We oops in ebt_basic_match() because it assumes eth_hdr(skb) returns a meaningful result.

commit bf9ae5386bca8836c16e69ab8fdbe46767d7452a
(llc: use dev_hard_header) removed the
skb_reset_mac_header call from llc_mac_hdr_init.

This seems fine itself, but br_send_bpdu() invokes ebtables LOCAL_OUT.

We oops in ebt_basic_match() because it assumes eth_hdr(skb) returns
a meaningful result.

use pskb_may_pull to access ipv6 header correctly for paged skbs
It was omitted in the bridge code leading to crash in blind
__skb_pull

since the skb is cloned undonditionally we also simplify the
the exit path

this fixes bug https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25202
