Reject packets larger than IP_MAXPACKET in linux_sendto() for sockets
with the IP_HDRINCL option set. Without this change, a Linux process with access to a raw socket could cause a kernel panic. Raw sockets must be created by root, and are generally not consigned to untrusted applications; hence, the security implications of this bug are minimal. I believe this only affects 6-CURRENT on or after 2005-01-30. Found by: Coverity Prevent analysis tool Security: Local DOS
