+Subject: [NET]: Make second arg to skb_reserved() signed.
+
+From: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
+
+Some subsystems, such as PPP, can send negative values
+here.  It just happened to work correctly on 32-bit with
+an unsigned value, but on 64-bit this explodes.
+
+Figured out by Paul Mackerras based upon several PPP crash
+reports.
