Syzkaller again found a path to a kernel crash through bad gso input. By building an excessively large packet to cause an skb field to wrap. If VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_NEEDS_CSUM was set this would have been dropped in skb_partial_csum_set. GSO packets that do not set checksum offload are suspicious and rare. Most callers of virtio_net_hdr_to_skb already pass them to skb_probe_transport_header. Move that test forward, change it to detect parse failure and drop packets on failure as those cleary are not one of the legitimate VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO types.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
