drivers/net/wan/lapbether: Set network_header before transmitting [ Upstream commit 91244d108441013b7367b3b4dcc6869998676473 ] Set the skb's network_header before it is passed to the underlying Ethernet device for transmission. This patch fixes the following issue: When we use this driver with AF_PACKET sockets, there would be error messages of: protocol 0805 is buggy, dev (Ethernet interface name) printed in the system "dmesg" log. This is because skbs passed down to the Ethernet device for transmission don't have their network_header properly set, and the dev_queue_xmit_nit function in net/core/dev.c complains about this. Reason of setting the network_header to this place (at the end of the Ethernet header, and at the beginning of the Ethernet payload): Because when this driver receives an skb from the Ethernet device, the network_header is also set at this place.
