Marco told me that he was still seeing the same problem. Turns out that
my patch missed one important case. I hope this is really the last time
I have to look at this bug :)
[NET]: Fix ___pskb_trim when entire frag_list needs dropping
When the trim point is within the head and there is no paged data,
___pskb_trim fails to drop the first element in the frag_list.
This patch fixes this by moving the len <= offset case out of the
page data loop.
This patch also adds a missing kfree_skb on the frag that we just
cloned.
The problem is fixed now. I have applied this
patch to 2.6.18-rc2
Many thanks Herbert for all the time spent
to debug this problem.
