Subject: [PATCH ipsec v2] xfrm: esp: restore combined single-frag length gate
The ESP out-of-place fast path appends the trailer in esp_output_head()
before esp_output_tail() allocates the destination page frag. The
head-side gate currently checks skb->data_len and tailen separately, but
the tail code allocates a single destination frag from the combined
post-trailer skb->data_len.
Reject the page-frag fast path when the combined aligned length exceeds a
page. Otherwise skb_page_frag_refill() may fall back to a single page while
the destination sg still spans the combined skb->data_len.
Restore this combined-length page gate for both IPv4 and IPv6.
Fixes: 5bd8baab087d ("esp: limit skb_page_frag_refill use to a single page")

Changes in v2:
- Use the ipsec tree subject prefix.
- Clarify that esp_output_tail() allocates after esp_output_head() appends
tailen.
- Avoid shadowing the existing allocsize variable.
- v1: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/ag7kxJ39XQaVY1Mb@krikkit/T/#t

But other than that, the fix looks correct to me: Reviewed-by: Sabrina Dubroca <sd@queasysnail.net> I don't know if Steffen will require a repost or apply this directly, so please wait at least the standard 24 hours.
