Subject: [PATCH net 0/2] inet: ping: give ping some care

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

First patch fixes an ipv6 ping bug that has been there forever,
for large sizes.

Second patch fixes a recent and elusive bug, that can potentially
crash the host. This is what I mentioned privately to Paolo and
Jakub at LPC in Dublin.

Eric Dumazet (2):
  ipv6: ping: fix wrong checksum for large frames
  inet: ping: fix recent breakage
