From: Aaron Conole <acon...@bytheb.org>
When signaling that a GRO frame is ready to be processed, the network stack
correctly checks length and aborts processing when a frame is less than 14
bytes. However, such a condition is really indicative of a broken driver,
and should be loudly signaled, rather than silently dropped as the case is
today.
Convert the condition to use net_warn_ratelimited() to ensure the stack
loudly complains about such broken drivers.
