[ Upstream commita063f2fba3] The receiving interface might have used GRO to receive more fragments than MAX_SKB_FRAGS fragments. In this case, these will not be stored in skb_shinfo(skb)->frags but merged into the frag list. batman-adv relies on the function skb_split to split packets up into multiple smaller packets which are not larger than the MTU on the outgoing interface. But this function cannot handle frag_list entries and is only operating on skb_shinfo(skb)->frags. If it is still trying to split such an skb and xmit'ing it on an interface without support for NETIF_F_FRAGLIST, then validate_xmit_skb() will try to linearize it. But this fails due to inconsistent information. And __pskb_pull_tail will trigger a BUG_ON after skb_copy_bits() returns an error. In case of entries in frag_list, just linearize the skb before operating on it with skb_split().

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.
