3.11.10.15 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Li RongQing <roy.qing.li at gmail.com>
commit 916c1689a09bc1ca81f2d7a34876f8d35aadd11b upstream.
skb_cow called in vlan_reorder_header does not free the skb when it failed,
and vlan_reorder_header returns NULL to reset original skb when it is called
in vlan_untag, lead to a memory leak.
