[PATCH 3.2 087/115] connector: bump skb->users before callback invocation

Show all headers | View raw

3.2.80-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>

[ Upstream commit 55285bf09427c5abf43ee1d54e892f352092b1f1 ]

Dmitry reports memleak with syskaller program.
Problem is that connector bumps skb usecount but might not invoke callback.

So move skb_get to where we invoke the callback.
