Subject: [52/90] ip_fragment: also adjust skb->truesize for packets not owned by a socket

2.6.31-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Patrick McHardy <kaber@...sh.net>

[ Upstream commit b2722b1c3a893ec6021508da15b32282ec79f4da ]

When a large packet gets reassembled by ip_defrag(), the head skb
accounts for all the fragments in skb->truesize. If this packet is
refragmented again, skb->truesize is not re-adjusted to reflect only
the head size since its not owned by a socket. If the head fragment
then gets recycled and reused for another received fragment, it might
exceed the defragmentation limits due to its large truesize value.

skb_recycle_check() explicitly checks for linear skbs, so any recycled
skb should reflect its true size in skb->truesize. Change ip_fragment()
to also adjust the truesize value of skbs not owned by a socket.
