[PATCH 3.13.y-ckt 84/90] gianfar: Carefully free skbs in functions called by netpoll.

[Kamal Mostafa]

3.13.11-ckt20 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm at xmission.com>

commit c9974ad4aeb36003860100221a594f3c0ccc3f78 upstream.

netpoll can call functions in hard irq context that are ordinarily
called in lesser contexts.  For those functions use dev_kfree_skb_any
and dev_consume_skb_any so skbs are freed safely from hard irq
context.
