From e7820e39b7d19b9fe1928fc19de9361b44150ca6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Fri, 21 Nov 2014 11:47:16 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] net: Revert "net: avoid one atomic operation in skb_clone()" Not sure what I was thinking, but doing anything after releasing a refcount is suicidal or/and embarrassing. By the time we set skb->fclone to SKB_FCLONE_FREE, another cpu could have released last reference and freed whole skb. We potentially corrupt memory or trap if CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is set.
