4.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jason Wang <jasowang@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 3d62b2a0db505bbf9ed0755f254e45d775f9807f ] We need to drop refcnt to xdp_page if we see a gso packet. Otherwise it will be leaked. Fixing this by moving the check of gso packet above the linearizing logic. While at it, remove useless comment as well.
