[PATCH net-next v2] net: dsa: avoid potential use-after-free error

From: Christian Eggers <ceggers@arri.de>
Date: 2020-11-19 11:10:06
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: networking [dsa], networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, Vladimir Oltean, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

If dsa_switch_ops::port_txtstamp() returns false, clone will be freed
immediately. Shouldn't store a pointer to freed memory.

Signed-off-by: Christian Eggers <ceggers@arri.de>
Fixes: 146d442c2357 ("net: dsa: Keep a pointer to the skb clone for TX timestamping")
