From 8882d9a60028a9937e9c5652cfb80d4399ce5242 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Fleming Date: Wed, 17 Dec 2008 16:50:22 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] gianfar: Fix packet drop when out of memory The patch which fixed gianfar so it drops packets when it runs out of memory left in the code which frees the skb when it drops packets. Change the code so that we only free the skb if the new skb was successfully created. Signed-off-by: Andy Fleming Signed-off-by: David S.
