[PATCH net] netem: fix a use after free

From: Eric Dumazet <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-20 22:58:13
Subsystem: netem network emulator, networking [general], tc subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Stephen Hemminger, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Jamal Hadi Salim, Jiri Pirko, Linus Torvalds

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>

If the packet was dropped by lower qdisc, then we must not
access it later.

Save qdisc_pkt_len(skb) in a temp variable.

Fixes: 2ccccf5fb43f ("net_sched: update hierarchical backlog too")
