| H A D | skbuff.c | a28b1b90 Sun Jul 23 12:54:47 CDT 2017 Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> skbuff: re-add check for NULL skb->head in kfree_skb path
A null check is needed after all. netlink skbs can have skb->head be
backed by vmalloc. The netlink destructor vfree()s head, then sets it to
NULL. We then panic in skb_release_data with a NULL dereference.
Re-add such a test.
Alternative would be to switch to kvfree to free skb->head memory
and remove the special handling in netlink destructor.
