From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== commit bd8c78e78d5011d8111bc2533ee73b13a3bd6c42 upstream. In testmode and vendor command reply/event SKBs we use the skb cb data to store nl80211 parameters between allocation and sending. This causes the code for CONFIG_NETLINK_MMAP to get confused, because it takes ownership of the skb cb data when the SKB is handed off to netlink, and it doesn't explicitly clear it. Clear the skb cb explicitly when we're done and before it gets passed to netlink to avoid this issue.
