3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Alexander Aring <alex.aring@xxxxxxxxx>
commit b0c42cd7b210efc74aa4bfc3e39a2814dfaa9b89 upstream.
This patch reverts commit:
a7807d73 ("Bluetooth: 6lowpan: Avoid memory leak if memory allocation
fails")
which was wrong suggested by Alexander Aring. The function skb_unshare
run also kfree_skb on failure.
