OVS: Ignore negative headroom value
net_device->ndo_set_rx_headroom (introduced in 871b642a) says "Setting a negtaive value reset the rx headroom to the default value". It seems that the OVS implementation in 3a927bc7 overlooked this and sets dev->needed_headroom unconditionally. This doesn't have an immediate effect, but can mess up later LL_RESERVED_SPACE calculations, such as done in net/ipv6/mcast.c:mld_newpack. For reference, this issue was found from a skb_panic raised there after the length calculations had given the wrong result. Note the other current users of this interface (drivers/net/tun.c:tun_set_headroom and drivers/net/veth.c:veth_set_rx_headroom) are both checking this correctly thus need no modification. Thanks to Ben for some pointers from the crash dumps!
