CVE-2023-53600

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

tunnels: fix kasan splat when generating ipv4 pmtu error

If we try to emit an icmp error in response to a nonliner skb, we get

BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in ip_compute_csum+0x134/0x220
Read of size 4 at addr ffff88811c50db00 by task iperf3/1691

ip_compute_csum() cannot deal with nonlinear skbs, so avoid it.
After this change, splat is gone and iperf3 is no longer stuck.
