From 9cc4b7cb86cbcc6330a3faa8cd65268cd2d3c227 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Hughes Date: Tue, 25 Apr 2017 10:15:06 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] brcmfmac: Make skb header writable before use The driver was making changes to the skb_header without ensuring it was writable (i.e. uncloned). This patch also removes some boiler plate header size checking/adjustment code as that is also handled by the skb_cow_header function used to make header writable.
