3.16.7-ckt10 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Bob Copeland <me at bobcopeland.com>

commit d0c22119f574b851e63360c6b8660fe9593bbc3c upstream.

The mesh forwarding path was not checking that data
frames were protected when running an encrypted network;
add the necessary check.
