packet: tpacket_snd(): fix signed/unsigned comparison
tpacket_fill_skb() can return a negative value (-errno) which is stored in tp_len variable. In that case the following condition will be (but shouldn't be) true: tp_len > dev->mtu + dev->hard_header_len as dev->mtu and dev->hard_header_len are both unsigned. That may lead to just returning an incorrect EMSGSIZE errno to the user. Fixes: 52f1454f629fa ("packet: allow to transmit +4 byte in TX_RING slot for VLAN case") Signed-off-by: Alexander Drozdov <al.drozdov@gmail.com> Acked-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Signed-off-by: David S.
