From 080b3c19a4ffe4677d7449880f4d0cea07182474 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Eric W. Biederman" Date: Thu, 27 Mar 2014 15:41:04 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] netpoll: Remove strong unnecessary assumptions about skbs Remove the assumption that the skbs that make it to netpoll_send_skb_on_dev are allocated with find_skb, such that skb->users == 1 and nothing is attached that would prevent the skbs from being freed from hard irq context. Remove this assumption by replacing __kfree_skb on error paths with dev_kfree_skb_irq (in hard irq context) and kfree_skb (in process context). Signed-off-by: "Eric W.
