packet: bail out of packet_snd() if L2 header creation fails
Due to a misplaced parenthesis, the expression (unlikely(offset) < 0), which expands to (__builtin_expect(!!(offset), 0) < 0), never evaluates to true. Therefore, when sending packets with PF_PACKET/SOCK_DGRAM, packet_snd() does not abort as intended if the creation of the layer 2 header fails. Spotted by Coverity - CID 1259975 ("Operands don't affect result"). Fixes: 9c7077622dd9 ("packet: make packet_snd fail on len smaller than l2 header") Signed-off-by: Christoph Jaeger <cj@linux.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Acked-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Acked-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
