Subject[patch 08/20] ipx: header length validation needed
-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org>

This patch will linearize and check there is enough data.
It handles the pprop case as well as avoiding a whole audit of
the routing code.
