Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ipvlan: add ipvlan_route_v6_outbound() helper

Inspired by syzbot reports using a stack of multiple ipvlan devices.

Reduce stack size needed in ipvlan_process_v6_outbound() by moving
the flowi6 struct used for the route lookup in an non inlined
helper. ipvlan_route_v6_outbound() needs 120 bytes on the stack,
immediately reclaimed.

Also make sure ipvlan_process_v4_outbound() is not inlined.

We might also have to lower MAX_NEST_DEV, because only syzbot uses
setups with more than four stacked devices.
