From: Yang Yingliang <yangyingliang@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit f07fadcbee2a5e84caa67c7c445424200bffb60b ] It is not allowed to call kfree_skb() or consume_skb() from hardware interrupt context or with hardware interrupts being disabled. In this case, the lock is used to protected 'bp', so we can move dev_kfree_skb() after the spin_unlock_irqrestore().
