Hi,

It is right but the fix is not. In that call trace:

flow_offload_port_dnat() {
...
u32 mask = ~htonl(0xffff);
__be16 port;
...
flow_offload_mangle(entry, flow_offload_l4proto(flow), offset,
(u8 *)&port, (u8 *)&mask);
}

port should have a 32b storage as well, and aligned with the mask.

^^^^^ ^^^ which is &port in the call above

This fix would cause it to copy only the first byte, which is not the
intention.
