From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 47d3d7fdb10a21c223036b58bd70ffdc24a472c4 upstream. Since ip6frag_expire_frag_queue() now pulls the head skb from frag queue, we should no longer use skb_get(), since this leads to an skb leak. Stefan Bader initially reported a problem in 4.4.stable [1] caused by the skb_get(), so this patch should also fix this issue. 296583.091021] kernel BUG at /build/linux-6VmqmP/linux-4.4.0/net/core/skbuff.c:1207!
