If you compare the kernel package changelog of 3.16.0-31.41 with 
3.13.0-46.75 you'll see that it has the same patches* that solved the bug 
#131811, but they're applied to a different bug report for some reason.

*"xen-netfront: Fix handling packets on compound pages with skb_linearize" 
and "xen-netfront: use correct linear area after linearizing an skb"
