Thanks, you are obviously right. Updated.

This was fixed for Fedora in the 4.9.13 kernels.
Comment 6 Vladis Dronov 2017-03-14 10:20:30 EDT
Statement:

This issue does not affect the Linux kernel packages as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, 6, 7 and MRG-2, as the kernel module 'llc2.ko' with this security flaw is not shipped with the products listed.
