Thanks for your ack!

> Should this go to net if a bugfix though?

Yes, this should theoretically be a bug fix. But I didn't think this
was an important fix, because af_packet.c already had workarounds for
this issue for all drivers that didn't have header_ops. We can
separate this patch to make it go to "net" though, but I'm afraid that
this will cause merging conflicts between "net" and "net-next".
