4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Arkadi Sharshevsky <arkadis@xxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit cbcc607e18422555db569b593608aec26111cb0b ] The __send_and_alloc_skb() receives a skb ptr as a parameter but in case it fails the skb is not valid: - Send failed and released the skb internally. - Allocation failed. The current code tries to release the skb in case of failure which causes redundant freeing.
