need info: softirq warning upon free skb

Hi Dave,

Sorry to bother. Today during testing I ran into two warnings, which 
given their occurrence are fired in the same code path:
kernel/softirq.c:99:__local_bh_disable():
	WARN_ON_ONCE(in_irq());
kernel/softirq.c:160:_local_bh_enable_ip():
	WARN_ON_ONCE(in_irq() || irqs_disabled());

I have not seen those warning before, but consider them serious enough 
to look into it (although no crashing system yet). They popped up in our 
driver while freeing an skb. For this we use a utility function in our 
driver (brcm80211 wireless) as listed below. It provided a little code 
shortcut by skipping dev_kfree_skb_any(). However, circumstances seem to 
have changed for some reason. The warning occurs in 
nf_conntrack_destroy() path. Before digging deeper I decided the answer 
might be known out there. Should the comment statements in the code 
snippet below still be valid? I am more than happy to get rid of the 
function entirely if it does not make sense.

Regards,
Arend
