commit 8598112d04af21cf6c895670e72dcb8a9f58e74f Author: Steffen Klassert steffen.klassert@secunet.com Date: Thu Aug 31 10:37:00 2017 +0200

xfrm: Fix return value check of copy_sec_ctx.

A recent commit added an output_mark. When copying
this output_mark, the return value of copy_sec_ctx
is overwitten without a check. Fix this by copying
the output_mark before the security context.

Fixes: 077fbac405bf ("net: xfrm: support setting an output mark.")

It does not apply to those trees at all, perhaps because 077fbac405bf is not in those kernel releases? Are you sure you need this commit backported?

thanks,
