1) Netlink socket dumping had several missing verifications and
   checks.

   In particular, address comparisons in the request byte code
   interpreter could access past the end of the address in the
   inet_request_sock.

   Also, address family and address prefix lengths were not
   validated properly at all.

   This means arbitrary applications can read past the end of
   certain kernel data structures.

   Fixes from Neal Cardwell.

2) ip_check_defrag() operates in contexts where we're in the
   process of, or about to, input the packet into the real
   protocols (specifically macvlan and AF_PACKET snooping).

   Unfortunately, it does a pskb_may_pull() which can modify
   the backing packet data which is not legal if the SKB is
   shared.  It very much can be shared in this context.

   Deal with the possibility that the SKB is segmented by
   using skb_copy_bits().

   Fix from Johannes Berg based upon a report by Eric Leblond.

Please pull, thanks a lot!
