#1310866 — [PATCH 4.2.y-ckt 038/305] ipvlan: fix use after free of skb

4.2.8-ckt2 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Sabrina Dubroca <sd@queasysnail.net>

commit a534dc529853c69e94994aa47c1d80a03ce2c11d upstream.

ipvlan_handle_frame is a rx_handler, and when it returns a value other
than RX_HANDLER_CONSUMED (here, NET_RX_DROP aka RX_HANDLER_ANOTHER),
__netif_receive_skb_core expects that the skb still exists and will
process it further, but we just freed it.

Fixes: 2ad7bf363841 ("ipvlan: Initial check-in of the IPVLAN driver.")
