Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
net: hsr: avoid potential out-of-bound access in fill_frame_info()<br />
<br />
syzbot is able to feed a packet with 14 bytes, pretending<br />
it is a vlan one.<br />
<br />
Since fill_frame_info() is relying on skb->mac_len already,<br />
extend the check to cover this case.<br />
