[PATCH 3.17 025/319] drivers/net: macvtap and tun depend on INET

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Nov 11 2014 - 23:21:24 EST


3.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ben Hutchings <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit de11b0e8c569b96c2cf6a811e3805b7aeef498a3 ]

These drivers now call ipv6_proxy_select_ident(), which is defined
only if CONFIG_INET is enabled. However, they have really depended
on CONFIG_INET for as long as they have allowed sending GSO packets
from userland.
