net: gro: fix possible panic in skb_gro_receive()
commit 2e71a6f8084e (net: gro: selective flush of packets) added a bug for skbs using frag_list. This part of the GRO stack is rarely used, as it needs skb not using a page fragment for their skb->head. Most drivers do use a page fragment, but some of them use GFP_KERNEL allocations for the initial fill of their RX ring buffer. napi_gro_flush() overwrite skb->prev that was used for these skb to point to the last skb in frag_list. Fix this using a separate field in struct napi_gro_cb to point to the last fragment. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
