4.2.8-ckt1 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jiri Benc <jbenc@redhat.com>

commit 9dc2ad1008c9f91f55ec6c89ec0f8639dfc91596 upstream.

vxlan_setup is called when allocating the net_device, i.e. way before
vxlan_newlink (or vxlan_dev_configure) is called. This means
vxlan->default_dst is actually unset in vxlan_setup and the condition that
sets needed_headroom always takes the else branch.

Set the needed_headrom at the point when we have the information about
the address family available.

Fixes: e4c7ed415387c ("vxlan: add ipv6 support")
Fixes: 2853af6a2ea1a ("vxlan: use dev->needed_headroom instead of dev->hard_header_len")
