openvswitch: Add length check when retrieving TCP flags.
When collecting TCP flags we check that the IP header indicates that a TCP header is present but not that the packet is actually long enough to contain the header. This adds a check to prevent reading off the end of the packet. In practice, this is only likely to result in reading of bad data and not a crash due to the presence of struct skb_shared_info at the end of the packet. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>
