[ Upstream commitfe81d9f618] When calculating ancestor_size with IPv6 enabled, simply using sizeof(struct ipv6_pinfo) doesn't account for extra bytes needed for alignment in the struct sctp6_sock. On x86, there aren't any extra bytes, but on ARM the ipv6_pinfo structure is aligned on an 8-byte boundary so there were 4 pad bytes that were omitted from the ancestor_size calculation. This would lead to corruption of the pd_lobby pointers, causing an oops when trying to free the sctp structure on socket close.

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.
