This patch adds skb_header_release which can be called when the owner of an skb no longer needs to access the header at all. What constitutes the header is left up to the users of the skb to define. For instance, for outbound TCP packets we define the header to be anything in front of the TCP payload. Therefore we add skb_header_release calls to all the paths where outound TCP packets are produced. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
