This unref is not logical, or should at least be
__skb_frag_unref(frag);
But I do think this is best done in the caller.
In virtio_net this would be a :
put_page(page);
In tcp stack we do almost the same, but we take the reference on the
page if we could not coalesce with prio frag, instead of doing a get and
put in the other case.
if (can_coalesce) {
skb_frag_size_add(&skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[i - 1], copy);
} else {
get_page(page);
skb_fill_page_desc(skb, i, page, offset, copy);
}
