[net-2.6 PATCH 3/3] net: fix double skb free in dcbnl

From: Jeff Kirsher <hidden>
Date: 2009-09-25 23:12:20
Subsystem: networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

From: John Fastabend <redacted>

netlink_unicast() calls kfree_skb even in the error case.

dcbnl calls netlink_unicast() which when it fails free's the
skb and returns an error value.  dcbnl is free'ing the skb
again when this error occurs.  This patch removes the double
free.
