From d5294971f11fc2b150437e43a4057c867c2bf413 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Fri, 7 Oct 2011 14:55:40 +0200 Subject: mac80211: dont orphan TX skb This was another workaround for truesize "bugs". The reason we did this was that when we orphaned the SKB it wouldn't be truesize-checked later. Now that the check is gone (and we just charge the former smaller size to the socket) there's no longer a reason to orphan the skb here. Keep the skb charged to the socket until it is really freed (or orphaned in TX status). This helps flow control and allows us to get at the socket later for other purposes.
