[PATCH 3/3] tap: free skb if flags error

From: wexu
Date: Fri Dec 01 2017 - 05:11:20 EST


From: Wei Xu <wexu@xxxxxxxxxx>

tap_recvmsg() supports accepting skb by msg_control after
commit 3b4ba04acca8 ("tap: support receiving skb from msg_control"),
the skb if presented should be freed within the function, otherwise
it would be leaked.
