Nate Karstens 5fb4722507 strparser: Fix signed/unsigned mismatch bug 
commit 4da4e4bde1 upstream.

The `len` member of the sk_buff is an unsigned int. This is cast to
`ssize_t` (a signed type) for the first sk_buff in the comparison,
but not the second sk_buff. On 32-bit systems, this can result in
an integer underflow for certain values because unsigned arithmetic
is being used.

This appears to be an oversight: if the intention was to use unsigned
arithmetic, then the first cast would have been omitted. The change
ensures both len values are cast to `ssize_t`.

The underflow causes an issue with ktls when multiple TLS PDUs are
included in a single TCP segment. The mainline kernel does not use
strparser for ktls anymore, but this is still useful for other
features that still use strparser, and for backporting.

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.
