3.13.11-ckt34 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet at google.com>

[ Upstream commit 7aaed57c5c2890634cfadf725173c7c68ea4cb4f ]

Ivaylo Dimitrov reported a regression caused by commit 7866a621043f
("dev: add per net_device packet type chains").

skb->dev becomes NULL and we crash in __netif_receive_skb_core().

Before above commit, different kind of bugs or corruptions could happen
without major crash.

But the root cause is that phonet_rcv() can queue skb without checking
if skb is shared or not.

Many thanks to Ivaylo Dimitrov for his help, diagnosis and tests.
