[PATCH net 3/3] openvswitch: Fix FLOW_BUFSIZE definition.

From: Jesse Gross <hidden>
Date: 2012-09-04 19:08:08
Subsystem: networking [general], openvswitch, the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Aaron Conole, Eelco Chaudron, Ilya Maximets, Linus Torvalds

The vlan encapsulation fields in the maximum flow defintion were
never updated when the representation changed before upstreaming.
In theory this could cause a kernel panic when a maximum length
flow is used.  In practice this has never happened (to my knowledge)
because skb allocations are padded out to a cache line so you would
need the right combination of flow and packet being sent to userspace.
