[PATCH 3.16 009/233] netem: fix skb_orphan_partial()

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Sat Sep 09 2017 - 18:31:27 EST


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

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

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit f6ba8d33cfbb46df569972e64dbb5bb7e929bfd9 upstream.

I should have known that lowering skb->truesize was dangerous :/

In case packets are not leaving the host via a standard Ethernet device,
but looped back to local sockets, bad things can happen, as reported
by Michael Madsen ( https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195713 )

So instead of tweaking skb->truesize, lets change skb->destructor
and keep a reference on the owner socket via its sk_refcnt.
