[Luis Henriques]

This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled

    tcp: make sure skb is not shared before using skb_get()

to the linux-3.16.y-queue branch of the 3.16.y-ckt extended stable tree 
which can be found at:

 http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.16.y-queue

This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.16.7-ckt9.

If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please 
reply to this email.

Subject: tcp: make sure skb is not shared before using skb_get()

commit ba34e6d9d346fe4e05d7e417b9edf5140772d34c upstream.

IPv6 can keep a copy of SYN message using skb_get() in
tcp_v6_conn_request() so that caller wont free the skb when calling
kfree_skb() later.

Therefore TCP fast open has to clone the skb it is queuing in
child->sk_receive_queue, as all skbs consumed from receive_queue are
freed using __kfree_skb() (ie assuming skb->users == 1)
