2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Eric Dumazet <eric.duma...@gmail.com> [ Upstream commit 4a7e7c2ad540e54c75489a70137bf0ec15d3a127 ] As soon as an skb is queued into socket receive_queue, another thread can consume it, so we are not allowed to reference skb anymore, or risk use after free.
