If we successfully linearize the packets, num_buf were set to zero
which was wrong since we now have only 1 buffer to be used for e.g in
the error path of receive_mergeable(). Zero num_buf will lead the code
try to pop the buffers of next packet and drop it. Fixing this by set
num_buf to 1 if we successfully linearize the packet.

So this is tweaked here for the benefit of err_skb below.
That's confusing and we won't remember to change it
if we change the error handling.

How about fixing the error path?


-        while (--num_buf) {
+        while (num_buf-- > 1) {

Seems more robust to me.

Looks good, will do this in V2.

Thanks
