Hi Stefan,

The kfree_skb() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then
returns immediately. Thus the test around the call is not needed.

Done. Resend the original message from my address but with the From line intact inside the patch. Please check if it really lists Markus as author when applying. Acked-by also resend as reply to the resend patch.
