If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Wei Xu <wexu@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 61d78537843e676e7f56ac6db333db0c0529b892 ] tap_recvmsg() supports accepting skb by msg_control after commit 3b4ba04acca8 ("tap: support receiving skb from msg_control"), the skb if presented should be freed within the function, otherwise it would be leaked.
