Kuniyuki Iwashima 380a82d36e gue: Fix skb memleak with inner IP protocol 0. 
[ Upstream commit 9a56796ad2 ]

syzbot reported skb memleak below. [0]

The repro generated a GUE packet with its inner protocol 0.

gue_udp_recv() returns -guehdr->proto_ctype for "resubmit"
in ip_protocol_deliver_rcu(), but this only works with
non-zero protocol number.

Let's drop such packets.

Note that 0 is a valid number (IPv6 Hop-by-Hop Option).

I think it is not practical to encap HOPOPT in GUE, so once
someone starts to complain, we could pass down a resubmit
flag pointer to distinguish two zeros from the upper layer:

  * no error
  * resubmit HOPOPT

README 

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.
