Florian Westphal c783a29c7e netfilter: nf_ct_ftp: prefer skb_linearize
This uses a pseudo-linearization scheme with a 64k global buffer,
but BIG TCP arrival means IPv6 TCP stack can generate skbs
that exceed this size.

Use skb_linearize.  It should be possible to rewrite this to properly
deal with segmented skbs (i.e., only do small chunk-wise accesses),
but this is going to be a lot more intrusive than this because every
helper function needs to get the sk_buff instead of a pointer to a raw
data buffer.

In practice, provided we're really looking at FTP control channel packets,
there should never be a case where we deal with huge packets.

Fixes: 0fe79f28bf ("net: allow gro_max_size to exceed 65536")

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.
