Does it make sense to backport
3697649ff29e0f647565eed04b27a7779c646a22 from 4.6 to the longterm
(4.4) release? I can trivially recreate the issue represented by
3697649ff29e0f647565eed04b27a7779c646a22 by attaching a eBPF filter
that clones an ingress ICMP packet, and then tries to set the
destination MAC address.
It seems like the patch applies cleanly to 4.4. I cherry-picked it,
and rebuilt my kernel, and at least in the trivial test case passes.
Makes sense to me, especially since it's lts.
Daniel, thoughts?
I'll queued this up for 4.4 -stable.
Sounds good, thanks!
