Subject: [PATCH 3.16 239/370] net: fix harmonize_features() vs NETIF_F_HIGHDMA

3.16.42-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@...gle.com>

commit 7be2c82cfd5d28d7adb66821a992604eb6dd112e upstream.

Ashizuka reported a highmem oddity and sent a patch for freescale
fec driver.

But the problem root cause is that core networking stack
must ensure no skb with highmem fragment is ever sent through
a device that does not assert NETIF_F_HIGHDMA in its features.

We need to call illegal_highdma() from harmonize_features()
regardless of CSUM checks.

Fixes: ec5f06156423 ("net: Kill link between CSUM and SG features.")
