Subject: [PATCH 3.19.y-ckt 150/170] ipv4: fix broadcast packets reception

3.19.8-ckt18 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@...hat.com>

commit ad0ea1989cc4d5905941d0a9e62c63ad6d859cef upstream.

Currently, ingress ipv4 broadcast datagrams are dropped since,
in udp_v4_early_demux(), ip_check_mc_rcu() is invoked even on
bcast packets.

This patch addresses the issue, invoking ip_check_mc_rcu()
only for mcast packets.

Fixes: 6e5403093261 ("ipv4/udp: Verify multicast group is ours in upd_v4_early_demux()")
