Subject: [PATCH] [73/139] net: Fix header size check for GSO case in recvmsg (af_packet)

2.6.35-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Mariusz Kozlowski <mk@....zgora.pl>

[ Upstream commit 1f18b7176e2e41fada24584ce3c80e9abfaca52b]

Parameter 'len' is size_t type so it will never get negative.
