3.16.7-ckt12 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Patrick McHardy <kaber at trash.net>

commit 9889840f5988ecfd43b00c9abb83c1804e21406b upstream.

Check that the space required for the expressions doesn't exceed the
size of the dlen field, which would lead to the iterators crashing.
