> OK. I see. I agreed to that complaint when the kfree was the only thing in the if {} but now I have to call ib_device_put() *only* in the error case not if there wasn't an error. So no reason to not put the kfree_skb() in there too and avoid passing a NULL pointer. It should stay the way it is.

First, I posted a diff which makes this if() redundant.
Second, the if () before kfree() is checked by coccinelle and your
"should stay the way it is" will be marked as failure in many CIs,
including ours.

Thanks
