Subject: [PATCH 2/2] net: Discard and warn about LRO'd skbs received for forwarding

From: Ben Hutchings <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 19 Jun 2008 19:08:34 +0100

Add skb_warn_if_lro() to test whether an skb was received with LRO and
warn if so.

Change br_forward(), ip_forward() and ip6_forward() to call it) and
discard the skb if it returns true.
