[PATCH 04/14] netlink: don't orphan skb in netlink_trim()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Netlink doesn't account skbs to the sending socket, so the there's no
need to orphan the skb before trimming it.

Removing the skb_orphan() call is required for mmap'ed netlink, which uses
a netlink specific skb destructor that must not be invoked before the
final freeing of the skb.
