From: Ben Hutchings <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit c3f463484bdd0acd15abd5f92399041f79592d06 upstream. There's no net_device stashed in skb->cb, there's a net_device * there. To make it *really* clear, also change the write of the dev pointer into skb->cb from a memcpy() to an assignment. Fixes: 3fe563249374 ("staging: rtl8192u: r8192U_core.c: Cleaning up ...")
