Hi Greg,

Commit 3f1e53abff84c fixes commit 7d7d7e02111e9 ("("netfilter: compat: reject huge allocation requests"), which has found its way into 4.14.y and 4.16.y. This causes syzcaller hiccups at least in 4.14.y (more specifically chromeos-4.14).

Please apply 3f1e53abff84c to v4.14.y and v4.16.y to fix the problem. Copying Dave and netdev in case he wants to handle it.

Sorry for the noise if this has already been queued.

I queued it up 2 hours ago :)

But thanks for asking, it's better to make sure it gets added.

thanks,
