    net: rswitch: Avoid use-after-free in rswitch_poll()
    
    [ Upstream commit 9a0c28efeec6383ef22e97437616b920e7320b67 ]
    
    The use-after-free is actually in rswitch_tx_free(), which is inlined in
    rswitch_poll(). Since `skb` and `gq->skbs[gq->dirty]` are in fact the
    same pointer, the skb is first freed using dev_kfree_skb_any(), then the
    value in skb->len is used to update the interface statistics.
    
    Let's move around the instructions to use skb->len before the skb is
    freed.
    
    This bug is trivial to reproduce using KFENCE. It will trigger a splat
    every few packets. A simple ARP request or ICMP echo request is enough.
