This series fixes three independent boundary problems in net/sched.
1/3 act_ife: encode a configured zero metadata value. ife_check_meta_u32()
reserves an 8-byte TLV for a configured zero value, but the encoder
returned without writing it, leaking stale skb headroom bytes.
2/3 act_ife: require a full Ethernet header on egress. An undersized
linear head can make the encoder read past the end of the skb data.
3/3 sch_teql: reject qdiscs from another network namespace. The global
TEQL master lives in the initial netns; a qdisc created in another netns
could still mutate the master's MTU and flags.
Origins:
1/3: reported by shaos [off-list ref] with a reproducer, which was
reproduced and verified in our test environment.
2/3: found by Sashiko (nipa and gemini) while reviewing Victor Nogueira's
parent act_ife patchset; independently reported by shaos
[off-list ref] with a reproducer, which was verified in our test
environment.
3/3: reported by shaos [off-list ref] with a reproducer, which was
reproduced and verified in our test environment.
The three patches are independent. They target net and carry a stable
nomination. They are sent together because they share the short-skb and
namespace-boundary review context.
