From: Herbert Xu <herbert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 260916dfb48c374f7840f3b86e69afd3afdb6e96 upstream. When we postpone a broadcast packet we save the source port in the skb if it is local. However, the source port can disappear before we get a chance to process the packet. This patch fixes this by holding a ref count on the netdev. It also delays the skb->cb modification until after we allocate the new skb as you should not modify shared skbs.
