+Subject: slip: Check if rstate is initialized before uncompressing
+
+From: Tejaswi Tanikella <tejaswit@codeaurora.org>
+
+
+[ Upstream commit 3f01ddb962dc506916c243f9524e8bef97119b77 ]
+
+On receiving a packet the state index points to the rstate which must be
+used to fill up IP and TCP headers. But if the state index points to a
+rstate which is unitialized, i.e. filled with zeros, it gets stuck in an
+infinite loop inside ip_fast_csum trying to compute the ip checsum of a
+header with zero length.

+
+Adding a variable to indicate if the current rstate is initialized. If
+such a packet arrives, move to toss state.
