It doesn't apply anymore.  It was against v3.4.

I will send one against Linus' tree soon.

As reported:
   This problem was discovered when doing BGP traffic with the TCP MD5 option
   activated, where the following call chain caused a crash:

    * tcp_v4_rcv
    *  tcp_v4_timewait_ack
    *   tcp_v4_send_ack -> follow stack variable rep.th
    *    tcp_v4_md5_hash_hdr
    *     tcp_md5_hash_header
    *      sg_init_one
    *       sg_set_buf
    *        virt_to_page

   I noticed that tcp_v4_send_reset uses a similar stack variable and
   also calls tcp_v4_md5_hash_hdr, so it has the same problem.

The networking core can indirectly call virt_to_phys() on stack
addresses, if this is done from PID 0, the stack will usually be in
CKSEG0, so virt_to_phys() needs to work there as well

Not tested against kernel.org kernel, but it may still apply

This could also fix problems noted by Eunbong Song with the
free_initmem_default() call.
