Hello Matt Johnston,

The patch f5b8abf9fc3d: "mctp i2c: MCTP I2C binding driver" from Feb
18, 2022, leads to the following Smatch static checker warning:

	drivers/net/mctp/mctp-i2c.c:341 mctp_i2c_recv()
	error: dereferencing freed memory 'skb'

The netif_rx() function frees the skb.

--> 341                 ndev->stats.rx_bytes += skb->len;

Can we just do "ndev->stats.rx_bytes += recvlen;"?

    342         } else {
