From 49ad9599d42da4787d5b3a19263440e0fcd4d1fc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "David S. Miller" Date: Wed, 17 Dec 2008 22:11:38 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "net: release skb->dst in sock_queue_rcv_skb()" This reverts commit 70355602879229c6f8bd694ec9c0814222bc4936. As pointed out by Mark McLoughlin IP_PKTINFO cmsg data is one post-queueing user, so this optimization is not valid right now. Signed-off-by: David S.
