Hi, Fengguang,

Could you try the following quick fix?

diff --git a/net/netlink/af_netlink.c b/net/netlink/af_netlink.c
index 8978755..d8c6c03 100644
--- a/net/netlink/af_netlink.c

                skb->head = NULL;
        }
 #endif
-       if (is_vmalloc_addr(skb->head)) {
+       else if (is_vmalloc_addr(skb->head)) {
                vfree(skb->head);
                skb->head = NULL;
        }
