Subject: [75/89] macvlan: fix a possible use after free

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

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


From: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit 4ec7ac1203bcf21f5e3d977c9818b1a56c9ef40d ]

Commit bc416d9768 (macvlan: handle fragmented multicast frames) added a
possible use after free in macvlan_handle_frame(), since
ip_check_defrag() uses pskb_may_pull() : skb header can be reallocated.
