4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit bbd6528d28c1b8e80832b3b018ec402b6f5c3215 ]
In the unlikely case ip6_xmit() has to call skb_realloc_headroom(),
we need to call skb_set_owner_w() before consuming original skb,
otherwise we risk a use-after-free.
Bring IPv6 in line with what we do in IPv4 to fix this.
